Preview recently edited notes and launch editor
Project description
redit - edit again
redit
previews a folder of recently edited text files and launches an editor on the file of your choice.
redit
is useful when you keep a folder of textual notes and you want to go back to a recently edited file whose name you might not remember. In this case you would type redit
and be greeted with this interactive prompt:
Answering with j
, enter
will then directly load README.md
into your editor.
You can set a default directory to look for files (say, ~/notes
) in ~/.config/redit/default-location
like this:
mkdir -p ~/.config/redit && echo '~/notes' > ~/.config/redit/default-location
Alternatively you can provide a location with redit ~/Downloads
and finally redit
falls back to the current directory.
Installation
pip install redit
Configure an editor
redit
will try to launch the editor in $EDITOR
or use the one configured in ~/.config/redit/editor
.
