# ZBrowse
When doing shell work, it is often the case that `echo $variable` is invoked multiple times,
to check result of a loop, etc. With ZBrowse, you just need to press `Ctrl-B`, which invokes the `ZBrowse` – `Zshell`
variable browser:
(you can resize the video like any web page)

## Installation
First install the [ZUI](https://github.com/zdharma/zui) plugin (it's an UI library).
**The plugin is "standalone"**, which means that only sourcing it is needed. So to
install, unpack `zbrowse` somewhere and add
```zsh
source {where-zbrowse-is}/zbrowse.plugin.zsh
```
to `zshrc`.
If using a plugin manager, then `Zplugin` is recommended, but you can use any
other too, and also install with `Oh My Zsh` (by copying directory to
`~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins`).
### [Zplugin](https://github.com/psprint/zplugin)
Add `zplugin load zdharma/zbrowse` to your `.zshrc` file. Zplugin will handle
cloning the plugin for you automatically the next time you start zsh. To update
run `zplugin update zdharma/zbrowse` (`update-all` can also be used).
### Antigen
Add `antigen bundle zdharma/zbrowse` to your `.zshrc` file. Antigen will handle
cloning the plugin for you automatically the next time you start zsh.
### Oh-My-Zsh
1. `cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins`
2. `git clone git@github.com:zdharma/zbrowse.git`
3. Add `zbrowse` to your plugin list
### Zgen
Add `zgen load zdharma/zbrowse` to your .zshrc file in the same place you're doing
your other `zgen load` calls.
