flyline demo

DESCRIPTION

When Bash prompts you for a command, a library called readline handles your keystrokes. Readline lacks many features users have come to expect. Flyline is a readline replacement that provides an enhanced line editing experience with:

  • Intellisense style autosuggestions
  • Change directory using your prompt
  • Rich prompt customizations, (asynchronous widgets), and animations
  • Fuzzy history searching
  • Mouse support (click to move cursor, select text)
  • Improvements to Bash's tab completion
  • Synthesize tab completion suggestions with flycomp
  • Agent assisted command writing
  • Tooltips
  • Text selection
  • Auto close brackets and quotes
  • Syntax highlighting
  • Runs in the same process as Bash
  • Cursor animations and styles
