After scribbling down notes in paper notebooks for years I finally decided I didn't want to kill any more trees to take notes I seldom referenced.
Now I have a digital tablet (Supernote) on which I scribble down all the meaningless stuff throughout the day. Then I review that and anything useful or important goes into Obsidian where I can tag/search it later.
I've never done the math on this, but my immediate thought on that reasoning was always that you'd have to burn through a LOT of paper to actually have such an electronic product be more environmentally friendly. Does anyone have concrete data on this?
...?
Neither of the tools I listed require copy-pasting the resulting command. They show me the generated command, and I either agree to run it or not by hitting "y" or Enter. They both suck at adding the resulting command to history, though.
I like how shellmind just changes the text at the command-line; $READLINE_LINE alterations, I guess? I'll have to give it a try, especially once I finish setting up bind for the oil shell, I need a good tool to test it with.
Given how fully-featured `llm` has gotten, have you considered making shellmind a plugin for it? That would enable access to way more models. Just a thought.
Ah, thank you for the correction. It's been quite a while since I used shell_gpt and things seem to have changed; I need to revisit these tools :)
Your plugin suggestion sounds interesting, I'll consider it!
It's good that you have a "read" statement to force confirmation by the user of the command, but all it takes is one errant accidental enter to end up running arbitrary code returned from the LLM.
I'd constrain the tool to only run "ffmpeg" and extract the options/parameters from the LLM instead.
I finished shellmind (https://github.com/wintermute-cell/shellmind) a few days ago, and it might interest you! It avoids having to copy-paste commands, by integrating directly into the shell and let's you review the real command before send-off. It's also general purpose and can handle more then just ffmpeg.
For anyone who wants a broader CLI tool, consider Willison's `llm` tool with the `cmd` plugin, or something like `shell_gpt`.
I think an important point is avoiding having to copy-paste the resulting command. A few days ago I finished shellmind (https://github.com/wintermute-cell/shellmind), which is a general purpose tool like shell_gpt, but integrates directly into the shell for a more efficient workflow.
