What does skin refer to?

good point.. Tabulator or Warp are skins.. they are like default viewer. It is like a default app that you want to use to browse the data, you can also pass --no-skin to have none

Makes sense. :) Would you be opposed to renaming them to apps, instead of skins?

Skin is a confusing word, but it's important to capture the idea that sometimes an app is invoked as a viewer for particular resource, as opposed to its usual mode. "Viewer" isn't right, though, because it doesn't have to be read-only. It's like how operating systems pick some app to run when you indicate you want to open a file (e.g.by double clicking). What do you call that app? The "default opener" or something.

re: "Default application" for file types. Tabulator/Warp are part of a class of "file browser" or "file manager" applications. If for instance, the default application to open is a "photo manager", it will act like a personal photo management software, displaying and offering special controls to only the file types in knows what to do with. I think renaming to something like --default-app seems intuitive enough and the terminology is closer to what's used in OSs, and with no special binding to a particular class of applications. --skin on the other hand comes across like a theme, decoration, or appearance.
