It also has shortcuts\nthat make it easy to view Markdown files on popular git forges.\n\n## Installing\n\n### pipx\n\nThe application can be installed using [`pipx`](https://pypa.github.io/pipx/):\n\n```sh\npipx install hike\n```\n\n### Homebrew\n\nThe package is available via Homebrew. Use the following commands to install:\n\n```sh\nbrew tap davep/homebrew\nbrew install hike\n```\n\n### Other installation methods\n\nThe following installation methods have been provided by third parties;\nplease note that I can't vouch for them myself so use them at your own risk.\n\n#### X-CMD\n\nThe application can be installed using [`x-cmd`](https://x-cmd.com):\n\n```sh\nx install hike\n```\n\n## Using Hike\n\nOnce you've installed Hike using one of the above methods, you can run the\napplication using the `hike` command.\n\nThe best way to get to know Hike is to read the help screen. Once in the\napplication you can see this by pressing \u003ckbd\u003eF1\u003c/kbd\u003e.\n\n![Hike Help](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/davep/hike/refs/heads/main/.images/hike-help.png)\n\nCommands can also be discovered via the command palette\n(\u003ckbd\u003ectrl\u003c/kbd\u003e+\u003ckbd\u003ep\u003c/kbd\u003e):\n\n![The command palette](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/davep/hike/refs/heads/main/.images/hike-command-palette.png)\n\nFor more information and details on configuring Hike, see [the online\ndocumentation](https://hike.davep.dev/).\n\n## Features\n\n- A command line where file names, URLs and commands can be entered.\n- A local file browser.\n- A simple bookmarking system.\n- A browsing history.\n- The ability to edit markdown documents in the local filesystem, either\n  using your editor of choice or a simple builtin editor.\n- Commands for quickly loading and viewing files held on GitHub, GitLab,\n  Codeberg and Bitbucket.\n- A command palette to make it easy to discover commands and their keys.\n- A rich help screen to make it easy to discover commands and their keys.\n- [Possibly more as time goes on](https://github.com/davep/hike/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ATODO).\n\n### Editing\n\nAs mentioned above, Hike has support for editing markdown documents you're\nviewing from the local filesystem. While a builtin editor is provided, use\nof your own choice of editor is supported. If Hike finds that `$VISUAL` or\n`$EDITOR` are set in your environment then the resulting command will be\nused to edit the document (with `$VISUAL` being tried first, followed by\n`$EDITOR`).\n\n## File locations\n\nHike stores files in a `hike` directory within both\n[`$XDG_DATA_HOME` and\n`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`](https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/).\nIf you wish to fully remove anything to do with Hike you will need to\nremove those directories too.\n\nExpanding for the common locations, the files normally created are:\n\n- `~/.config/hike/configuration.json` -- The configuration file.\n- `~/.local/share/hike/*.json` -- The locally-held data.\n\n## Getting help\n\nIf you need help, or have any ideas, please feel free to [raise an\nissue](https://github.com/davep/hike/issues) or [start a\ndiscussion](https://github.com/davep/hike/discussions).\n\n## TODO\n\nSee [the TODO tag in\nissues](https://github.com/davep/hike/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3ATODO)\nto see what I'm planning.\n\n[//]: # (README.md ends here)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdavep%2Fhike","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdavep%2Fhike","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdavep%2Fhike/lists"}
