Usage

Parameters requiring arguments can be used with an equals sign (e.g., --path=).

FLAGS:
        -C, --color <color>      Specify list of colors to use (use -C ls|list to list colors)
        -N, --nofzf              No fzf, however not a wrapper
        -T, --lolcat             Color the header with lolcat
        -W, --wrapper <cmds>     No fzf, but is a wrapper and can use tag commands
        -b, --boxes              Add a box around header with boxes
        -c, --config <conf>      Specify configuration file
        -d, --dump               Dump configuration (mappings, actions, keyfile). Optional parameter of p|pager (no hyphen) to view in pager
        -f, --font <font>        Use custom font with figlet (some are provided)
        -h, --help               Display this help message
        -j, --jump               Use autojump to select directory to use tags (only shows tagged files)
        -l, --local              Use tag in a local directory
        -n, --nocolor            Don't use colored output
        -p, --path <path>        Enter a path for ftag to start
        -q, --query <query>      Start fzf with a query
        -s, --sort               Sort desc with d|desc|++, sort ascending with a|asc|+
        -t, --toilet             Color and format the header with toilet
        -v, --verbose            Display verbosity (-vvv is max; only used with wrapper as of now)
        -w, --wutag              Also tag files with wutag (-ww only uses wutag)
        -x, --xtrace             Most useful with wrapper
        -z, --zoxide             Use zoxide to select directory to use tags (only shows tagged files)
         - If a tag is searched for, it must be last and it must be exact (-q for fuzzy matching)
         - Figlet is ran if toilet isn't specified and vice-versa
         - The default printing (no flags specified and figlet installed) looks the nicest
         - Parameters requiring arguments can be used with an equal sign (e.g., --path=)

Environment Variables and `zstyle`

The following settings can be specified using environment variables, zstyle, or a configuration file located at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ftag/config.ini. An example configuration file that has all available settings can be generated using -g or --genconfig. The order of precedence in which the configuration can be specified are:

The key-file specified with zstyle ":ftag:" key-file <location> or the variable FTAG_KEYFILE
All zstyle specifications
Environment variables

`FTAG_PAGER`

Pager to be used throughout the script. The default is either bat --paging=always -f or less. (It works best with bat installed.)

zstyle ":ftag:" pager <cmd>

`FTAG_COPY`

The copy command that is used to copy the path of the file to the clipboard. Since, as least for right now this is only applicable to macOS, this shouldn't be too much of a concern. The default is pbcopy; however, it still can be set to xclip -sel primary or xsel -p.

zstyle ":ftag:" copy-cmd <cmd>

`FTAG_FILEMANAGER`

The file-manager to open the directory where the file resides using F within fzf. The defaults are set to lf, falling back to ranger, falling back to xplr. There are plans to add all the file managers so it will choose the first one it comes across.

zstyle ":ftag:" file-manager <cmd>

`FTAG_COLORS`

A list of no more than 3 colors to be used in coloring ftag's output. The first color specifies the tags, the second specifies the tag separator, and the third specifies the color of the shortened %DIR_MAP array.

zstyle ":ftag:" colors <colors>

`FTAG_KEYFILE`

File of keybinding configuration (-g|--genconfig will generate an example at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ftag/config.ini)

zstyle ":ftag:" key-file <file_path>

`FTAG_NERDFONT`

Set to 1 if your terminal supports Nerd Font symbols, or 0 if not. The same can be done in the configuration file under the section nerd_font, as well as using the zstyle below.

zstyle ":ftag:" nerd_font <1|0>

`FTAG_DIR_MAP`

An array containing maps to directories for ftag to shorten. There are already several that are set. An array can be set in the format of:

"$HOME/.config/zsh"     %ZDOTDIR
"$HOME/.config"         %XDG_CONFIG_HOME
"$HOME/.cache"          %XDG_CACHE_HOME
"$HOME/.local/share"    %XDG_DATA_HOME
"$HOME/bin"             %XDG_BIN_HOME

There is no zstyle setting here. It can be specified in the key-file.

`FTAG_FILE_PREV`

The command to preview files with using fzf. The default is bat --style=numbers --color=always. There is no need to add empty brackets {} for fzf, it is added after the command is specified.

zstyle ":ftag:" fzf-file-preview <prev_cmd>

`FTAG_DIR_PREV`

The command to preview directories with using fzf. The default is exa -TL 3 --color=always --icons and falls back to using tree -L 3.

zstyle ":ftag:" fzf-dir-preview <prev_cmd>

`FTAG_MODIFIER`

The modifier to bind keys with in fzf. The default is ctrl.

zstyle ":ftag:" fzf-modifier <mod>

`FTAG_ALT`

The alt-key to bind with in fzf. The default is alt.

zstyle ":ftag:" fzf-alt <alt>

Note: The keybindings specified in the keyfile will have the fzf-alt/fzf-modifier that is also specified in the keyfile applied to them. All other keybindings will respect zstyle's specification or the associated environment variables.

`zstyle` only

These are additional zstyle settings.

Default `fzf` command

fzf-tmux or whatever else fzf wrapper can be used instead of the default. skim compatibility is in the works.

zstyle ":ftag:" fzf-command <cmd>

Additional `fzf` bindings

These are additional fzf bindings that are not actions. An example would be ctrl-j:preview-down,ctrl-k:preview-up.

zstyle ":ftag:" fzf-bindings <bindings>

Additional `fzf` flags

The source code can be peeked at to see the ones already in use. This option is here in case any additional would like to be added.

zstyle ":ftag:" fzf-flags <flags>

TODO

Catch error on invalid flag
Confirm support for file paths with spaces
Fix alignment of output if path is not part of the mapping hash
Find a way to display hidden tagged files
Use langinfo, etc for all arrow symbols
Add option for tag separator symbol
Add option to permanently set notifications
Add full support for yaml
Switch to keyfile only (no support without one)
Possibly use a cache file (use sqlite3)
Submit fzf bug, regarding how TUI programs that are written in go work just fine, but ones written in rust do not
