How to Pay Respects

Please follow the instruction for your shell:

Bash / Zsh / Fish

Manual aliasing:

alias f="$(pay-respects bash)"
alias f="$(pay-respects zsh)"
alias f="$(pay-respects fish)"

Auto aliasing (optional custom alias can be added after --alias):

eval "$(pay-respects bash --alias)"
eval "$(pay-respects zsh --alias)"
pay-respects fish --alias | source

Nushell

Add the following output to your configuration file:

pay-respects nushell [--alias <alias>]

Or save it as a file:

pay-respects nushell [--alias <alias>] | save -f ~/.pay-respects.nu

and source from your config file:

source ~/.pay-respects.nu

Custom initialization for arbitrary shell

pay-respects only requires 2 environment variables to function:

• _PR_SHELL: The binary name of the current working shell.
• _PR_LAST_COMMAND: The last command.

pay-respects echos back, if applicable, a cd command that can be evaluated by the current working shell.

General example:

eval $(_PR_SHELL=sh _PR_LAST_COMMAND="git comit" pay-respects)

You can now press F to Pay Respects!
