About:
Skim is a command-line fuzzy finder that provides an interactive filtering interface for any list of items. It is a fast, Rust-based alternative to tools like fzf, offering features like multi-selection and preview windows. The tool integrates seamlessly with shell pipelines to enhance command-line productivity.
Key Features:
  • Fuzzy finding logic written in Rust for speed
  • Vim-like key bindings for navigation
  • Multi-selection support
  • Extensible preview windows
  • Can function as a standalone filter or fzf replacement
Use Cases:
  • Filtering long command output (e.g., git log, ps aux)
  • Selecting files or directories for shell operations
  • Interactive selection for shell history search
Alternatives:
  • fzf – The standard Go-based fuzzy finder; Skim aims to be a compatible, faster alternative with additional features.
  • peco – An older interactive filtering tool written in Go; Skim generally offers better performance.
