Your personal shell command keeper

Writwick Wraj loves using the command line.

Writwick googles "How to do X in terminal?" and multiple forums and blog posts finally provide him the magical command for the rescue. Problem Solved !

Fast forward couple weeks, Writwick has to do X in terminal, again. Wraj remembers solving this few weeks ago. Let him do a reverse-i-search with Ctrl+R. Nope, can't remember sh*t. Browser search history? 25 web pages found matching X. Argh!

Writwik finally finds the solution. From this time Writwik starts writing the commands somewhere online for the future.

Wait, why shouldn't he keep the command in his terminal itself if this is only place where he'll ever have use it?

• Save a new command with a brief description
• Search the saved commands using powerful patterns
• Save the commands as a secret GitHub gist
• Use keep push and keep pull to sync the commands between GitHub gist and other computers.

ProTip : Save the commands you usually forget in ssh sessions and sync it with your local machine.

$ pip3 install keep
