hop-file-browser 2.1.0

An intuitive and fast terminal file browser

Hop!

Hop is a terminal based file explorer designed to be fast, simple and user friendly. Hop runs on any operating system.

Use

Once Hop installed, it can be ran at any point in the terminal by typing hop. This will bring you into the file explorer.

Anything you type will filter the files, and pressing enter will navigate into a selected folder.

Typing + at the end of your input, and pressing enter will add a selected item into your "inventory".

You can delete, copy or move the files into your current folder by typing !delete, !copy or !move and pressing enter. Deleting will move to the recycle bin.

Empty your inventory (i.e. clear your selection) with !empty or !e, and quit with !q or !quit.

Otherwise, run any normal shell commands (i.e. vim, mkdir, rm etc) by using the ! prefix, such as !mkdir cool-files

Installation

The only requirement for running Hop is python. It can be installed with pip, with optional dependencies for unix (apple/linux):

pip install hop-file-browser
pip install 'hop-file-browser[unix]'

Consider using pipx to install into an isolated environment.
