I've experimented a lot with making my own CLI programs to change how I interact with the terminal, for example wrapping things like cp and mv in a stateful way. I feel like I'd reached some form of enlightenment when I was able to do

> cp file

> z folder (which is deeply nested somewhere else)

> paste

instead of having to type everything out.

It feels to me like the possibilities of the CLI and how we interact with it have barely been explored.

Code? Detailed explanation of possibilities?
