TODO research

  • Research FIFO/socket options for better integration with other tools.
  • Research saner configuration formats.
  • Research saner key binding options.
  • Research how to go beyond filesystem and explore any tree-like structure.
  • CLI options and help menu.
  • Go beyond research and implement things.
