I hope this article along with this comment serves as a gateway drug for people to realize fzf is also really useful in injecting some interactivity into their shell scripts. It feels different to write scripts which call down fzf from the heavens for a split second.
I am very new to shell scripting and as I wrote the script, I actually just realized that I can plug anything into fzf that is split into lines of text and that I can use the selected output for further processing, since itβs just text.
I just love how simple it is to stick anything together via the universal plain text interface in the shell and even pipe this text/dataflow through interactive tools like fzf, as you just mentioned.
