fx is my custom Terminal-based file explorer and multi-tool intended to replace explorer.exe for everyday usage.

Requires .NET 8.0

• Commands.yaml: Provide quick commands for directories and files
• Executables.yaml: Define aliases to external program paths for use in Commands.yaml. On startup, each command is written to a script file in executables which is then set as the program's temporary PATH variable.
• fx_state.json: Saves the current state of fx user data (libraries, command logs, views)
