I use a lot of command line programs, very often with similar arguments. Can anyone recommend an application or a workflow that allows me to store often used shell commands and search through my recent commands, using a GUI?
I have commands that I use very often (eg. rsync a specific directory to a server) and other commands that I use less often. Creating shell scripts for every code snippet I might reuse seems a bit awkward.
Especially for programs that I use seldomly, I end up reading the docs over and over again, because I forgot to write down the exact shell command. Ideally I would like an app that's just like Terminal.app, but provides some kind of history and snippet management.
What do you use to keep track of shell commands?
Also, regarding the "Terminal GUI", for terminal/bash lovers, that's one of the mortal sins. Why click when you can type? I'd wager there's just no big enough market for that. – Daniel Beck – 2011-01-03T21:59:17.080
