Looks great, thanks!

As for Orthodox File Managers, I'm in the same camp and I could never understand how people can be productive with bare Explorer window. Most operations of files and directories require more work (keystrokes/mouse movements) than in OFMs. Not to mention things like having a quick look into any text file, for example (F3-Esc) as opposed to double clicking - running an external viewer - closing it. Practically everything in OFMs can be done faster.

The main way I navigate these days is global search through Everything. File operations apart from saving and opening files are extremely rare, and I just do them from PowerShell via command history.

Do you happen to use "F7 History" [1] which is based on `Out-ConsoleGridView`, which, in-turn is built on Terminal.Gui?

If not, why not? (Because I'd love to make it even better).

I use PowerShell's standard F8, which autocompletes commands from history.
