Zmove allows for seamless file moving in the terminal

Description

This package builds on zoxide and mv shell command (move for Windows) to easily move files in your system. Move files or directories to any directory you've already been to

Dependencies

• zoxide

NOTE: Support has been added for Zmove on Windows but it is currently untested on Windows

To install

• Install zoxide

• Install cargo with curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

• Run cargo install zmove

• Run zmv --version to verify installation

Installing manually

• Install zoxide
• Install cargo
• clone the repository at zmove
• Build with cargo build --release and find executable in release folder

How to use

• To move a single file or directory: zmv <file name> <target directory>

• To move multiple files or directories: zmv *.<extension if file has one> <target directory>

• To move multiple files or directories: zmv <path (optional)>/*.<extension if file has one> <target directory>

• To move all files or directories: zmv <path (optional)>/*.* <target directory>

Eg. If you have a directory called foobar and you want to move example.txt into it, you could run zmv example.txt foobar or even just zmv example.txt bar and full directory path will be inferred giving that the user has visited it before or if foobar exists in current directory.

Eg. If you would like to move multiple files to another directory, run zmv *.txt bar or zmv foo/*.txt bar or zmv ./* bar
