Tab autocomplete/File Chooser input

Open IllustratedMan-code opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. There is no easy way to have a user input a file path. Some sort of file chooser dialog that supports tab autocomplete would be great.

Describe the solution you'd like I am envisioning something like the gum filter but it would fuzzy match files within the current directory. Once the input was representative of a directory within the current directory, the fuzzy matching would be for that directory.

It would be almost like the output of ls . | gum filter, but once the input was another directory, the output would look like ls ./directory | gum filter.

I'm asking for something similar to the emacs function council-find-file , which is displayed at around 6:10 in this video
