dirp

A Directory Pruner. This tool is a terminal UI app, written in Rust, that helps you remove unwanted clutter from your file system.

Usage

$ dirp ~

This command will open dirp on your home directory and display something similar to this.

The user can use the keyboard for various things.

    Up Arrow, p          - Move selection up.
    Down Arrow, n        - Move selection down.
    
    Left Arrow           - Show directory contents.
    Right Arrow          - Hide directory contents.
    f                    - Toggle directory contents.
    
    d, Delete, Backspace - Toggle selection for removal.
    
    x                    - Remove marked files, and exit program.
    q                    - Exit program.

NOTE: Nothing is removed from the file system until the user hits the 'x' key. A list of all marked files is then presented and the user is prompted to remove them or just exit.

NOTE: This tool doesn't delete anything. It moves all marked files into the system Trash directory.
