      Quickly creating or editing objects. The main target would be editor extensions, image a snippet that expands to an object on tab for instance

    I was thinking about something kinda related this morning, how would you make a tab completion-like system for commands in gnome/xterm. Something like what vscode does with a drop down list. I was thinking it would be cool to be able to be mid command line, type a - and get a list of flags, – and get the expanded options, (all of this likely exists already), but if I type ? the word is searched for in help/manpage for a related flag option

      zsh has completion built in. There’s zsh-autocomplete that’s maybe closer to what you’re thinking. I’m not aware of a term emu with special GUI for it beyond what your shell gives you.
