Comments
  • Using EDITOR instead of tuifi_default_editor

    Using EDITOR instead of tuifi_default_editor

    Is there any benefit to using a custom variable for the editor? Using EDITOR will use the correct editor out of the box for most users, since most people heavily using the terminal will have it set. If you want to offer the ability to use an editor other than what EDITOR is set to, perhaps you could check if tuifi_default_editor is set, and otherwise fallback to EDITOR?

  • TUIFIManager does not start in current working directory.

    TUIFIManager does not start in current working directory.

    Hello,

    I see no reason why TUIFIManager should not start in the current working directory $PWD (os.path.curdir in Python).

    Instead, it appears the default is to always start in the user's home directory ($HOME).

    Please consider changing the behavior.

  • CTRL + S is default for stop processing terminal

    CTRL + S is default for stop processing terminal

    Just wanted to point out that for a terminal based utility, the default keybinding CTRL +S is highly problematic, as for most environments it means freeze / don't update / stop scrolling the terminal. (with CTRL + Q meaning continue / unfreeze / resume scrolling).

    Please consider to replace this default binding with something less irritating to most users.

    Thanks.

  • Delete send to trash instead of a full remove

    Delete send to trash instead of a full remove

    Hello, your project got the attention from a youtuber and I thought to help a bit with an issue that he talks about.

    https://youtu.be/9laxdMKTZLA

    Still missing a confirmation prompt and implementation to handle the trash with the manager, but with this PR, will solve the issue that any file that is deleted with this app, will delete them instead of send it to the trash.

    Tested using a Fedora VM and works perfectly.

    Good work and as the youtuber said, I hope this project keeps going.

    PD: Will be nice to handle versioning using tags instead of commits, this will help to document the versions as stable as it gets, also if someone else tries to get involved into it, will help to know what's going on with more clear commit messages.

  • Extracting

    Extracting "ascii images" to files

    It would be really nice to have a separation for the ASCII files icons into their own files outside the codebase.

    This would make organization easier, adding new files type an easy manner and improve the possibility for customization. I would think of having metadata along the ascii art, such a the file extensions.

    For later on it could be a way to add better / small icons too while keeping the code clean with a simple loader helper
