Case insensitive file systems are a really stupid idea. Especially if you’ve ever written code to handle files and then had Windows screw you over.
That’s actually the reason I changed all my main folders to lower case. Another nice thing you can do is change your downloads folder to ‘internet’ so that tab completion doesn’t mix it up with ‘documents’.
Isn’t this more of a linux meme than a programming meme?
sudo echo "set completion-ignore-case on" >> /etc/inputrc
What are you crazy? They’re completely different! You think ASCII code 01100100 is the same as ASCII code 01000100? COME ON!
Seriously though, if Linux would implement a fuzzy search for capitalized and uncapitalized letters that would be pretty cool. Like if you do
cd downloadsit should be able to pretty easily find that you meantcd DownloadsYou know zsh has fuzzy completion. There are also plenty of fuzzy finder out there which do just that.
