bashfinder's Issues

Replace cd with \cd in cdee and cdff

$ source .bash_profile
$ cd

[Process completed]

Replacing dotfiles overwrites users' previous preferences.

mv .bash_profile ~/.bash_profile

But I have things in ~/.bash_profile that I like.

Library includes many unnecessary files, questionable Bash source, pollutes globals.

I was working on a fork but in the end I get what amounts to a new project tree, so I'll leave this with you. I strongly recommend adding the OSX_FINDER_FOCUS option like I show there, and also prefixing function names with __ (this is a convention you will see elsewhere). It also would be better if, like other small bash scripts, this one only included the important functions, and left it to the user to provide alias mappings to them.

__osx_win() {
    if [[ -z "$1" ]]; then
        local dir="$HOME"
    else
        local dir="$1"
    fi
    \cd "$dir" && __osx_open > /dev/null
}

__osx_open() { __osx_finder; }
__osx_column() { __osx_finder column; }
__osx_icon() { __osx_finder icon; }
__osx_list() { __osx_finder list; }

__osx_mirror() {
    cd "$(__osx_cwd)"
}

__osx_view() {
    __osx_finder "set the current view of the front Finder window to $1 view"
}

__osx_finder() {
    osascript -e 'set cwd to do shell script "pwd"' \
        -e 'tell application "Finder"' \
        -e 'if (1 <= (count Finder windows)) then' \
        -e 'set the target of window 1 to (POSIX file cwd) as string' \
        -e "$1" \
        -e 'else' \
        -e 'open (POSIX file cwd) as string' \
        -e "$1" \
        -e 'end if' -e 'end tell'
    if [[ "$?" && -n "$OSX_FINDER_FOCUS" ]]; then
        open -a Finder
    fi
}

__osx_cwd() {
    osascript -e 'tell application "Finder"' \
        -e 'if (1 <= (count Finder windows)) then' \
        -e 'get POSIX path of (target of window 1 as alias)' \
        -e 'else' \
        -e 'get POSIX path of (desktop as alias)' \
        -e 'end if' \
        -e 'end tell'
