This + package primarily adds extra templated arguments to shell commands, in + particular, when used with `dired`. It also provides its own take on whether + or not to display shell command buffers, using a combination of heuristics and + explicit user input. While the extra templating is a fantastic feature, its + focusing behavior conflicts with an ordinary `display-buffer-alist`-based + workflow. The two packages are theoretically compatible with one another.
