A set of tips and advices for the CLI tools I often use.
To access CLI tools regardles of the current working directory remember to use aliases in .zshrc.
Some of the aliases I find useful:
alias ls='ls -la --color=auto'
alias mc='/opt/homebrew/Cellar/midnight-commander/4.8.29_1/bin/mc'
alias brew='/opt/homebrew/bin/brew'
alias nf='/opt/homebrew/Cellar/neofetch/7.1.0/bin/neofetch'
alias echo_path='echo $PATH | sed '\''s/:/\n/g'\'' | sort | uniq -c'
alias zed='nv ~/.zshrc'
alias zrc='source ~/.zshrc'
alias tt='tree -C'
More useful settings:
# setting the ls colors
export LSCOLORS="GxfxcxdxDxegedabagacad"
