zrm

zrm is a command-line tool written in Nim that enhances file and folder deletion by integrating with fzf (a command-line fuzzy finder). It provides a fast and interactive way to select multiple items for deletion.

Features

• Interactive Deletion: Uses fzf to create a fuzzy-searchable, interactive list of files and directories.
• Multiple Selections: Select one or more items to delete using the <TAB> key.
• Safety First:
  • Requires confirmation before deleting any files.
  • Prevents the deletion of critical system paths like your home directory (/home/user) or the root directory (/).
• Efficient: Quickly lists items in the current directory for selection.

Prerequisites

• Nim (version 2.2.4 or higher)
• fzf
