I’d like to interject for a moment. There is also a tool called bat that is just cat with extra features. It prints out and works just like cat, but when the contents get too big, it works like less. The is syntax highlighting and works with git.

It’s replaced my need for cat and less.

I use flatpak, pacman, and yay for my software management. I unify the basic needs by using these aliases:

SEARCH
fsearch = flatpak search <input>
psearch = pacman -Ss <input>
ysearch = yay -Ss <input>

REMOVE
fremove
premove
yremove

LIST
flist
plist
ylist

GARBAGE COLLECTION
fcg
pcg
ycg

And so on.

Additionally I also gave ucg as well as an all-in-one garbage collector command.
