Found some nice tools in a twitter thread
All can be installed using homebrew.
bat, a better cat github
exa - a better ls (also does trees) github
fzf - a fuzzy search github
z - quick cd to your most recently used folders github
cd /Volumes/Data/Research/aim2/code
cd ~
z code
puts you back into big/long/folder/path/to/code
There are many more on the thread.

I forgot about tldr. It gives you the essence of (some) man pages.

Use fzf and z regularly and I love them. Definitely have to check out the other ones, thanks for this post!

Would be nice if some of these supported R markdown files for syntax highlighting.
