# Usage:        ffv [path file or folder]
#
# Arguments:    --help : prints usage info
#               -h : prints usage info
#
# Description:  Bash script which is a combination of 'mkdir' and 'touch'.
#               It can create directory structures and files simultaneously
#               and lists the created objects using eza, lsd, or ls.
#
# Dependencies: bash, eza (optional), lsd (optional)
#
# Examples:     - Single file:
#                   ffv file
#               - Single directory:
#                   ffv dir/
#               - Multiple files:
#                   ffv file1 file2 file3
#               - Multiple directories:
#                   ffv dir1/ dir2/ dir3/
#               - File in a directory
#                   ffv dir/file
#               - Directory in a directory
#                   ffv dir1/dir2/
#               - Multiple files in multiple directories
#                   ffv dir1/dir2/file1 dir3/file2
#               - If your shell supports brace expansion e.g bash, zsh, fish
#                   ffv dir1/{dir2/{file1,file2}.txt,dir3/file3.txt}
