Ohhh, an inventory for the command line.
I love that idea.
@kyonshi actually useful if you have terminals open in two distant directories: take in one, drop in the other, instead of wasting effort typing the paths of places where you already are.
Though cut/copy&paste might be more efficient idiom for that.
@korpiq the hitch comes at the very end of the description: you only can have a single file in the inventory.
Why tho? That's way less useful than having an inventory with multiple files. Why not limit it to ten, or even just five?
@kyonshi this gives me an idea for an interactive fiction style shell:
$ look
home
you are standing in a wide, open field. to your north, you can see ~/Applications. to your east, ~/Desktop. to your south, ~/Documents. to your west, ~/Downloads. type look directions for more.
$ east
you go east.
$ combine file.txt with cat
i don't know how to "combine" something.
$ use file.txt with cat
you insert the file.txt into the cat. you hear whirring, then the following text appears:
[ file output ]
