Here is a usage in a script that helps me change terminal theme either randomly or by showing the interactive menu of entries using fzf

🧵4/4 : Interactively or if you are lazy like me to find the full name or what the filename starts for autocompletion to kick in or in a nested folder, we use fzf to search for file and substitute it in whatever command we are typing

🧵3/4 : We can kill processes interactively by hitting **<TAB>, some autocomplete which is set up in your shell config when you install fzf. Also available for ssh entries etc.

🧵2/4 : cd to a directory with the name of the file you remembering having somewhere. Here we move into a folder with the file single threaded matrix multiplication code.

Thought I would share some of the snippets I use daily to speed up my workflow with fzf. Here's a few things I use it for-
- 1. and 2. cd to a folder itself or a folder with a certain file
- 3. kill processes
- 4. usage in scripts ( shown: changing terminal theme )
