Project description
GrandTourer
GrandTourer is a CLI tool for easily launching GUI applications on MacOS with a two letter command: gt
. It's a drop-in replacement for open -a
, but without the need for precise capitalisation, spacing, and first words like "Microsoft" or "Adobe" if you have multiple applications from them.
Installation
Use the package manager pip to install GrandTourer. GrandTourer requires Python >=3.8.
$ pip install grandtourer
Usage
Type gt
followed by the first few letters of your application name.
There's no need for spaces and capital letters - GrandTourer will find the relevant application. If there is more than one possible match, you might need to include a few more letters.
$ gt calc
# Launches 'Calculator'
$ gt calculossus
No apps found
$ gt cal
Did you mean one of the following?
1. Calculator
2. Calendar
Enter the number you want. Enter any other number to exit:
Also, if you have, for example, the Microsoft Office or Adobe Creative Cloud suites installed, you don't need to include the first word. So:
$ gt adobeil
# Launches 'Adobe Illustrator'
$ gt il
# Also launches 'Adobe Illustrator'
