  1. Opening a terminal at current directory.
  2. Execution of some script in directory. eg "cargo new "
  3. command area to be a bit distinct.

  1. it is difficult to detect which terminal to use (e.g. running echo $TERM in wezterm only prints xterm-256color). Might be possible to check the running process or add a default terminal name in the config file, but I don't think it is worth it at this time.
  2. you can run i.e. cargo init with :cargo init in felix. Do you want to do something else?
  3. I'd be happy if you could give me an example, or the style to use.

  1. $TERM, declared as an env variable just like $EDITOR. I do not know if that could be a possibility, just suggesting.
  2. I used to run python scripts off ranger file manager to sort out a messy directory based on file extensions.
  3. Something like Zathura maybe took me a little bit of time to find the prompt. I'm not a big user of file explorers but this tool is a fun to use.

Thanks. For the python script in ranger, I've heard of it but not used yet myself, so I'll check it later.
