The obfuscation wasn't that bad, I recall it was quite fun to parse through for inspiration while trying to implement a similarly spirited file manager, only in posix-compliant shell (well, at least in `dash`). No arrays were a major pain point, and mainly why I gave up halfway.

Anyways, thanks for the `fff` rewrite, it's pretty wonderful.

You could probably pull it off in POSIX sh if you basically made a file manager TUI around 'ls' (this isn't a bad idea actually). ;)
