"Run Shell Commands" Ideation

[NerdGGuy]

Just some thoughts about how to make shell commands more friendly. There are likely a few things people might want to do.

• Not run shell commands
• Edit the shell command before running it
• Prompt or Ask for more details about the command
• /clear before running shell command

v0.54.12

python my.py --row 2 --field Labels
Run shell command? (Y)es/(N)o [Yes]: n
You can use /undo to undo and discard each aider commit.
---
my.py
> 

Suggestion

You can use /undo to undo and discard each aider commit.
---
my.py
> /run python my.py --row 2 --field Labels

Some feature that might better handle these use cases.

• Down arrow can move to empty prompt
• Left arrow can allow cursor movement to the characters the user wishes to add or change
• Home can allow cursor to more to start allowing user to change /run to /ask or something different
• Add shell command to history. This would allow user to run /clear and then up arrow to the "/run" command.

I'm not saying this is the ultimate UX, just ideating :).
