Alt+F2

I just wrote a class in ruby for the backend for the ALT+F2 replacement i’m working on.

here is the class in ruby


#! /usr/bin/ruby
require 'pathname'
class Doer
def initialize
path=ENV['PATH'].to_s.split(":")
@li=""
@cmdlst=[]
@command=Hash.new()
path.each do |indpath|
inpath=Pathname(indpath)
files=inpath.children(false)
files.each do |fls|
testval=FileTest::executable?(File.join(indpath,fls))
if testval
cmdpth=File.join(indpath,fls).to_s
cmd=fls.to_s
@command.store(cmd,cmdpth)
@cmdlst.push(cmd+"\n")
end
end
end
@cmdlst=@cmdlst.join
end
def updatefind(str)
pattern=Regexp.compile("#{str}.*",Regexp::IGNORECASE)
@li=@cmdlst.scan(pattern)
return @li
end
end

You can try it by passing a string to the updatefind function for getting the list of commands similar to the give string.

For eg:
x=Doer.new()
puts x.updatefind(ARGV[0])


if you are passing the string from command line..
Hope ppl find this useful!!
will update soon with the Qt front end as soon i’m done with it.
