ea: make your CLI output actionable.
ea: Making CLI Outputs Actionable
ea remembers file paths from CLI output for later use.
Intro
CLI programs like find, rg, clang etc, print out file paths (and line/columns). ea lets you act on
them. Here's how:
By running your command through ea, each path in its output get marked with a number in the front. This
number can be used to retrieve its corresponding path later for your purposes. Combined with some shell
configurations, this can provide a powerful experience.
