xonsh shell support #44

Open anki-code opened 7 months ago

Hi! Thank you for the awesome tool!

Is there a way to use it with the shell i.e. with the python-powered xonsh shell?

Thanks!

xonsh might not be possible with the textual framework, but this would be very doable with textual-terminal.

Just curious, what would be your recommended UX? I was thinking something like the T keyboard binding that pops up a terminal window on the lower 50% of the screen

One issue I can think of is this might not be super intuitive with remote filesystems. I.e. you're looking at a directory via SFTP and you expect ls to return the files you're looking at instead of what's on your local machine

Yep, it will be cool.

For me it's ok to press t and get the terminal for local. It could be improved in the future to ssh to the machine and may be use xxh :)

To support your project I mentioned browsr on the xxh readme:
