bash-cache allows us to store those complex usages of commands... that wondrous regex, or massively complex usage of awk. just save it.
install with npm npm install -g bash-cache
##Usages
bash-cache [-c] <command> -s <text in quotes> # save
bash-cache [-c] <command> -d # delete all
bash-cache [-c] <command> # display
Anywhere bash-cache is used below, cache would work as well.
##Save an annotation
bash-cache -c ls -s "ls -al shows me more than normal" #saves annotation for ls
##Display annotations
bash-cache ls # displays annotations for ls
##Clear annotations
bash-cache -c ls -d # deletes annotations for ls
##Where are the annotations?
stored in your home directory ~, in .bash-cache-annotations.json
which is formatted like so:
{
'ls' : [ 'ls -al shows me more than normal' ],
}
