That’s the same as bat:[1] one of the features is syntax highlighting. Kind of unexpected to find a concatenation program… which also does that.

Project mention: Level Up Your Dev Workflow: Conquer Web Development with a Blazing Fast Neovim Setup (Part 1) | dev.to | 2024-03-16ripgrep: A super-fast file searcher. You can install it using your system's package manager (e.g., brew install ripgrep on macOS). fd: Another blazing-fast file finder. Installation instructions can be found here: https://github.com/sharkdp/fd
Project mention: Measuring startup and shutdown overhead of several code interpreters | dev.to | 2024-04-17Check out the official hyperfine Github repo
Project mention: Say good bye to cd and hello Zoxide - the better and smarter cd command | dev.to | 2024-04-14
Project mention: Show HN: TBMK – A Commands Bookmark for Terminal | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-26I've built something similar for myself (fzf+a bit of shell). But I realized that fzf's history view (with very long history buffer) works much better for my use case.
I still needed something to cover rare commands with dynamic arguments. That got covered by Navi: https://github.com/denisidoro/navi (takes more friction to add new command than with TBMK, but you get much more organized and easier to search tool).
Incorrect link. Just goes to the list of open requests.
Here is a ticket which mentor the rust rewrite, perhaps this was what was intended: https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema/pull/579
I tried Hurl after Insomnia went the way of Postman. The highlights you list were the strong drivers for testing it out. Where Hurl fell short was composing requests. Example: X.hurl response has authToken. Y.hurl uses authToken. Z.hurl uses authToken. There's no import ability[1], so you've got to use other tooling to copy X.hurl into Y.hurl and Z.hurl.
Ultimately settled on Bruno. It's backed by readable text files[2] as well. The CLI works for scripting. And the GUI is familiar enough that I've managed to convert Postman holdouts at my dayjob.

Project mention: Free Tech Tools and Resources - Hardware Monitor, Offboarding Script, WiFi Scanner & More | /r/SysAdminBlogs | 2023-10-25gping is a souped-up version of the traditional ping utility that graphs network latency for multiple hosts as well as execution time for commands, with the option of custom colors. Our thanks for the suggestion go to fudgecakekistan.
Project mention: Show HN: TextQuery – Query and Visualize Your CSV Data in Minutes | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-02I realize it's not really that comparable since these tools don't support SQL, but a more fully functioned CLI tool is - https://github.com/BurntSushi/xsv
They are both fairly good

Project mention: Fast memory vulnerabilities, written in 100% safe Rust | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-20> If someone plopped me in front of a rust codebase I'd be at the mercy of the manual for quite a long time.
This is not a representative sample of Rust. That's explicitly triggering edge cases which requires abuse of syntax you wouldn't normally see.

Project mention: Show HN: ScaleSocket – Turn any script into a multiplayer WebSocket server | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-20It's similar to running netcat in server mode, wrapping a script. It's even closer to doing that using websocat [1], whereby one does not have to do the websocket header juggling.
The main difference is that while netcat or websocat will spawn a new process for each connecting client, ScaleSocket has a concept of rooms (channels). For a room, a process is spawned once only. All clients connecting to the same room are routed to the same process. This is not straight forward to do using the forementioned tools.
There's a small comparison page [2] where I have mentioned some alternative tools.
