Who are these for? People who use the terminal but don’t like running shell commands?
OK sorry for throwing shade. If you use one of these, honestly, what features do you use that make it worthwhile?
EDIT: Just to clarify, my point is I would almost always reach for fzf
, fd
, or rg
before trying to manually search through a directory in a file manager.
EDIT2: A few people mentioned selecting files in a TUI. I don’t find it any harder to select files using autocomplete. It might even be faster to start typing a name than it is it “scroll” through a list of files.
EDIT3: Here’s a neat tool that can add some flexibility to your shell workflow: https://github.com/urbanogilson/lineselect
How do you mount the GDrive ? What app allows you that ? I know gnome allows it but since moving to sway I gave up on it
Rsync can do this.
I use rclone. The command I use to mount my GDrive is basically:
rclone mount "GoogleDrive:" ~/googledrive --vfs-cache-mode full --daemon
And then I could access it (almost) as if were a regular USB drive mounted onto my filesystem (by doing
cd ~/googledrive
). Only difference is that it is a bit slow, as none of the files ever get synced to the computer’s hard drive (all changes are immediately uploaded to Google servers), and I cannot change the filesystem permissions (they are always a+rw for all of the files).
