From: ghorner Date: 2010-04-10T03:40:10+09:00 Subject: Initial release of lightning Hi rubyists, I'm announcing lightning, a gem to speed up your commandline experience. Lightning does this by generating functions which wrap around commands and translate basenames to their full paths. For example: $ cd-gem bacon-1.1.0 # Same as cd /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/bacon-1.1.0 $ less-ruby fileutils.rb # Same as less /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/ 1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb Lightning's functions also autocomplete the basenames it can translate. For more info: * Install with: gem install lightning * Intro post: http://tagaholic.me/2010/04/08/lightning-speed-for-your-shell.html * User's guide: http://tagaholic.me/2010/04/09/lightning-speed-for-the-user.html * Homepage: http://tagaholic.me/lightning Enjoy, Gabriel
