/pkdir

wrapper for mkdir that replaces default file icons with Pokemon

Primary LanguageShell

pkdir

example image

Install:

In your terminal, run brew tap eatspaint/pkdir; brew install pkdir

For updates, run brew update and then brew upgrade pkdir

Usage:

Use pkdir just as you would use mkdir, but get Pokémon instead of boring folder icons.

pkdir <name> [-n number]

<name> can be a new directory, or an existing file or directory [-n] is an optional 3 digit flag to select a specific pokémon, by number

You can also run pkdir -h for help with commands.

Example:

pkdir ~/Desktop/my_folder -n 006

Wow, there's a cool Pokémon on my desktop, thanks eatspaint!

System Requirements:

Because of the fileicon bash script used, this project is currently OSX only. If anyone is interested in getting this running for Linux as well, let me know and we can collaborate on a solution!

Thanks to mklement0 for fileicon, DragonFlyCave for the sprites, and Pokémon for my childhood.
