Open CRAG666 opened 4 months ago

Your project is great and I would like to completely replace fzf, I leave an example of what I want to replace:

pacman -Slq | fzf --multi --preview 'pacman -Si {1}' | xargs -ro sudo pacman -S

Hey @CRAG666, you can use gum filter with the --no-limit flags here.

pacman -Slq | gum filter --no-limit | xargs -ro sudo pacman -S

Regarding the preview, you have to use cut(1) to extract the data you want.
