T-Walker is a simple terminal user interface designed to be the quickest way to navigate directories and quickly edit files.

Installing T-Walker is simple. Just clone the repository and run the install directive from the MakeFile.

The install directive assumes that you are using zsh as your shell. If you are using a different shell, you will need to manually add the alias t="source /usr/local/bin/t-wrapper.sh" to your shell's sourcing file.

git clone https://github.com/kreulenk/t-walker.git
cd t-walker
make install

The final make install command may require root permissions.

To use T-Walker, simply run the t command from the terminal. The interface will open and you can navigate directories with the arrow keys and enter into directories files with the enter key.

The following keybindings are available:

• Up Arrow or k - Move up one file.
• Down Arrow or j - Move down one file.
• Left Arrow or h - Move left one file.
• Right Arrow or l - Move right one file.
• Enter - Enter into a directory.
• b - Go back one directory.
• e - Edit the selected file. Defaults to vim but this can be overridden using the EDITOR environment variable.
• c - Change into the selected directory from your shell. This will cause T-walker to exit.
• r - Remove the selected file.
• s - Search through the files in the current directory.
• v - View the selected file using the less program.
• q - Quit the program.

All filesystem objects are categorized using the following colors:

• File - Light Blue
• Directory - Dark Blue
• Symbolic Link Directory - Purple
