A command-line tool that parses bash output, presents a UI to select files, and lets you open them or run commands.
What is pathpicker?
PathPicker is a command-line tool that parses output from commands like git, grep, or find, extracts filenames, and presents an interactive UI for selection. It solves the problem of manually picking files from bash output by allowing users to visually select files and then open them in an editor or run custom commands.
Developers and system administrators who frequently work in the terminal and need to efficiently select files from command output for editing or batch operations.
It saves time by automating file selection from noisy command output, supports a wide range of input sources, and integrates seamlessly into existing shell workflows without complex setup.
Overview
PathPicker accepts a wide range of input -- output from git commands, grep results, searches -- pretty much anything. After parsing the input, PathPicker presents you with a nice UI to select which files you're interested in. After that you can open them in your favorite editor or execute arbitrary commands.
