What's everybody working on? (September Edition)

As mentioned above I’m working on my ls-style tui filemanager lui.

I now stepped away from the idea of implementing an internal mode for managing plain text notes. Instead I want to implement some features that are very helpful for notes management, but can also be used with regular dirs/plain text files:

  • filter plain text files recursivley by string pattern matching on the content (wip right now)
  • filter subdirs by pattern matching on the filename/path
  • create new plain text files from template with simple template system
  • maybe: run shell commands on selected file/dir from within lui

Currently I’m getting my head into SIMD-boosted search optimization for string pattern matching. Something I haven’t dealt with before. However, so far my test results are quite promising and maybe I’ll give the implementation a try the upcoming days after figuring out whats the best way to implement this into the tui framework.

Unfortunately, my free holiday time will be over on Monday and that might shift my focus back to S3 stuff due to my job priorities…
