For jumping around deeply nested folders.

This example presents a command-line tool for navigating deeply nested folders using named shortcuts. It shows how users can create persistent marks for directories, jump to them from anywhere, list all saved marks, and remove unwanted ones. The Bash script relies on symbolic links stored in a hidden `$HOME/.marks` directory, with functions `mark`, `jump`, `unmark`, and `marks` managing these links. Tab completion for `jump` and `unmark` is implemented via the `complete` built-in and a custom `_completemarks` function that queries the filesystem with `find`. The tool depends only on standard shell utilities like `ls`, `sed`, and `cut`.

Bash command line Shortcuts

This example visualizes Bash command-line shortcuts by grouping them into four functional categories: command editing, recall, control, and Bang commands. The visualization uses a force-directed graph layout via `d3.forceSimulation` to position shortcut nodes, with color coding and labels indicating each shortcut’s key combination and its corresponding action. Hovering over a node highlights its description. The underlying data is sourced from a gist by P7h, originally adapted from a blog post, and the visualization is rendered in JavaScript with D3, focusing on the relational structure of these productivity commands.

Common Terminal Commands

This example presents a plain-text Markdown reference for common terminal commands, sourced from a gist by IoTeacher. It shows a structured cheat sheet covering keyboard shortcuts, manual lookup (`man`, `--help`), and command categories like file system navigation (`pwd`, `ls`, `cd`, `find`), opening files/folders per OS (`open`, `start`, `xdg-open`), and file modification (`mkdir`, `touch`, `rm`, `cp`, `mv`). The rendering relies on standard GitHub-flavored Markdown, with code blocks and tables organizing the content. No interactive or programmatic visualization is used; the design is purely textual and static.

Gist d283aa688022fd984eee

This example is a collection of developer cheat sheets covering Bash, Git, GnuPG, irssi, Mutt, nmap, OpenSSL, Tmux, Vim, and zsh. It presents commands and keyboard shortcuts in tables and code blocks, organized by topic for quick reference. The content is plain text with Markdown formatting, including tables for keyboard bindings and shell code snippets for commands. The structure uses headings and a table of contents to aid navigation, making it a practical reference guide rather than an interactive visualization.

Gist 473345

This visualization maps the keyboard shortcuts from the Bash manual page as an interactive node-link diagram. It shows a hierarchical layout where the central command "man bash" branches to movement actions like `beginning-of-line` and `forward-word`, with each shortcut key (e.g., C-a, M-f) as a leaf node. The rendering uses D3.js with a `d3.forceSimulation` for layout, while SVG paths draw the links and circles represent nodes. The data is parsed directly from the manual’s text formatting, extracting command names and key bindings. Hovering highlights adjacent nodes, but the static view reveals the clustered structure of editing operations.

Open current directory in forklift

This example shows a shell script that opens the current directory in ForkLift, a macOS file manager, either in a new tab or window. It first resolves the target path via `pwd`, optionally accepting a custom path argument, then forwards it to an AppleScript block. The AppleScript uses `System Events` to inspect ForkLift’s File menu for the enabled state of the new-tab command, sends keyboard shortcuts for tab/window creation and “Go to Folder”, and types the path using `keystroke`. The script is adapted from a Gist by McNull, adding an optional path argument and removing clipboard reliance.

Various aliases set up for my convenience on my Linux machine. Copy these to your .bashrc.

This example presents a collection of shell aliases for Linux, sourced from a gist by P7h and intended for direct inclusion in a user’s `.bashrc` file. It shows a curated set of shortcuts, including commands like `cd..`, `ls`, `grep` with color output, and the `now` alias for formatted date and time. Each alias is defined via the Bash `alias` built-in, demonstrating how to override default behaviors, such as adding `-c 5` to `ping` or using `sudo` with `vi`, while also grouping related functions like `tmuxn`, `tmuxa`, and `tmuxl` for session management. The text is plain code, with no external libraries or APIs beyond the shell environment.

Gist 1041566

This gist presents a customized Z shell configuration that enhances terminal productivity through Git integration, directory shortcuts, and command aliases. It shows a prompt with green user and host information, a red Git branch indicator, and a green prompt symbol, while also demonstrating autoloaded colors, history options, and key bindings. The code relies on zsh's built-in prompt expansion, the `autoload` command for module loading, and external tools like `git`. The configuration also includes functions for setting terminal titles and creating web development project scaffolding.

navigate to the directory returned by a previous `which XXX`

This example demonstrates a terminal workflow for jumping directly into a source directory after locating an executable with `which`. The visualization, authored by BBischof as a gist, is a static diagram of the command sequence `cd $(dirname $(!!))`. It shows how the shell expands the `!!` history reference into the full `which` command, pipes that output through `dirname` via a command substitution, and feeds the resulting directory path to `cd`. Rendered as a text-based flow chart, it uses no external graphics libraries, relying solely on ASCII characters and shell syntax annotations to depict the process.
