pyrems

A simple Python CLI tool for remembering and managing your bash commands.

What it does

pyrems (Python Remember) helps you save, organize, and quickly access important commands you don't want to lose. Instead of digging through your bash history or losing commands when switching computers, pyrems stores your commands with optional notes and tracks how often you use them.

Key Features

• Save commands with notes for future reference
• Smart storage - automatically increments hit counter for repeated commands
• Interactive search - browse and fuzzy-search your saved commands
• Persistent across machines - sync your commands via dotfiles
• Usage tracking - see which commands you use most often

Quick Start

# Install pyrems
pip install pyrems

# Initialize the tool
pyrems install

# Save a command (add to your .bashrc)
tar -xzvf archive.tar.gz
rem "Extract gzipped tar archive"

# Browse and search saved commands
pyrems

# List all saved commands
pyrems list

Commands

• pyrems - Interactive command browser with fuzzy search
• pyrems store - Store a command (usually called by the rem bash function)
