hugows / hf Goto Github PK

I have a bunch of shell aliases defined in my .zshrc, would be nice to be able to use them as commands for hf. https://github.com/facebook/PathPicker/ supports this.

Currently having defined alias ll='ls -lah', using ll $FILES as command results in sh: ll: command not found

Currently, hf doesn’t seem to list symlinks pointing to files. This isn’t a problem if the files are accessible as regular files too (though some people might prefer having the symlink names available anyway, since their names might be different). However, in some use-cases, the symlinks might point to destinations which are otherwise pruned away (e. g., a file in a dotted directory); this will then lead to some files not available listed for completion at all.

E. g., git-annex stores large BLOBs in git by managing them as symlinks to a path of the form .git/annex/objects/…. I keep notes and lots of other stuff in these repositories, and accordingly none of the filenames are currently given as completions when using hf.

Setting the EDITOR environmental variable to something along the lines of C:\Program Files\Sublime Text 3\subl.exe doesn't work. I think it would work correctly with a path that doesn't contain spaces.

Also, I believe that it would be better to put the default editor for windows as notepad.exe Since it will always be available from the command line, but subl.exe would only be available if it's in the PATH.

The default tests for runcmd_test.go fail on windows. By default hf uses cat $FILES and cat $FILES | wc -l as test commands. On Windows, cat is an alias in Powershell. When the default shell is changed to use powershell -Command instead of cmd /c, the cat command works for one file, but it will not work for multiple files.
