Command LookUp

TooLoo

Got an overwhelming number of command line scripts and functions? So many you've actually started to forget what options you have available, or what some of them do? Try TooLoo!

What does it do?

TooLoo allows provides a full text search of the name, description, and details of your scripts. When a script includes a "help" command, TooLoo will call it and display current usage docs instead of potentially outdated ones from its cache.

Scroll down to see some examples of its output.

Additionally, TooLoo can generate a static web site with a built-in Lunr search to document all your commands. To accomplish this, TooLoo generates the Markdown files, and Hugo builds the search index, and converts it to a site for you.

TooLoo.dev has got you covered.

I'm a big fan of README Driven Development, but this README was getting to be too much for one page.
