Only writing to terminal what actually changed (akin to an adaptible screen paint / refresh)

files sorted by age, something akin to

fd --exec stat --printf='%Y\t%n\n' | sort -nr | head -1 | cut -f2

Shell for linux, running on python, aiming to be largely 'bash-like' (if not completely compatible afaik).

Could be intersting for more in-depth terminal work (semi-programmable) but probably large time investment to switch from other cozy homes like zsh.

Some useful shell ideas (bash, but many work with zsh).

Aliases, history functions, brace expansion etc

Using dmenu to directly seach through youtube results and add the resulting video into mpv.

Could be adapted to use my umpv script, and remove some of the required programs.

I use custom script to store extra information for each task. The following script called note just create a markdown file named by task uuid:

#!/bin/env bash

NOTE_DIR=${HOME}/.task/notes
mkdir -p notes/
if [[ $# -eq 1 ]]; then
  uuid=$(task _get $1.uuid)
  note="${NOTE_DIR}/${uuid}.md"
  vim $note || exit 1
  task ${uuid} mod note:$(date --iso-8601=seconds) >/dev/null
else
  vim ${NOTE_DIR}/buffer
fi

And then just set UDA and alias into taskrc:

uda.note.type=date
uda.note.label=Note
alias.note=execute "${HOME}/.task/hooks/note"

Now you can take a note with vim for each task if necessary:
task note 1
And you may also filter them by UDA:
task note.isnt:
And of course, the best way to manage markdown in vim is vimwiki!

An alternative is taskopen

In ZSH you can increase your productivity with aliases. This post explains 5 types of aliases that you should know. Boost your shell productivity now and make ZSH your own

The zsh shell offers countless options and features. Here are 5 ways to boost your efficiency from the command line.

Advanced aliases are interesting (e.g. aliases based on file ending)

What can I type at my shell (which happens to be bash) that will list all the commands that are recognized?

Also, does this differ by shell? Or do all shells just have a "directory" of commands they know about?

simplest version:
compgen -c to list all commands
