automatically cd or open folder on goto <path-to-folder> about goto HOT 6 CLOSED

1. change flag in the_real_goto.py from -f to -o, --open and open
2. update start_goto in _goto_completions to use -o, --open and open instead of -f
3. update usage() to document this usage in the_real_goto.py

To do 2. simply append these new flags to the chain of || statements.

I want to do this as part of a bigger change where I try to use something like the Click library for command line parsing.

from goto.

I now realize that this issue is closely related to #4.
I think that the default mode should be cd and then there could be a -ofor explorer.
Since goto is a command-line tool, cd - ing is what i except to be the default behaviour.

My humble API suggestion

goto <magicword>            # cd to folder
goto <magicword> -o --open  # open window

I am not 100% sure if it is a good idea to do both cd to folder + open window, but in many case it would be useful. Some people might find it annoying. Maybe a third option would be cool

goto <magicword>                 # cd
goto <magicword> -o --open       # open
goto <magicword> --ocd           # cd + open  (lol ocd)

from goto.

This was just merged in on from branch #17 -- you now can just do goto <magicword>
however, the flag for opening window is -f

That flag could possible be associated with "force" rm -rf | git push origin master -f etc.

So your flag, -o is better. How about the word: open also?

goto open <magicword>
goto <magicword> -o
goto <magicword> --open

I will actually leave the job of the better flags and word to @Arxcis this time ^^ (if he takes the challenge)

from goto.

For now I implemented it in the brute way the parsing is now,

Will check out Click and see how it is to work with compared to argparse

Let's roll with Click 👍
