fm
fm provides a gui to select an item from a list using a fuzzy matching algorithm.
When an item is selected, it is sent to the plumber send port unless the -p option
is used in which case the item name is printed on standard output and the application exits.
Left-click an item to select it.
Right-click to activate the selected item.
Keyboard shortcuts:
- Arrow up / down change selection
- Enter activate selection
- Page up / down scroll by one screen page
- Home go to first item in the list
- End go to last item in the list
- Ctrl-U clears the input line
- Esc clears the input line unless input is empty in which case it exits fm
- Del to exit fm
Usage:
