LF - List Files
This is a simple command line program that lists files in the current directory prefixed with special characters that matches the filetypes according to DevIcons patched fonts like those offered by NerdFonts.
It is written in Free Pascal compiled to native code.
Currently, this was only tested on Windows 10 machines, since newer Console hosts allow to use colored and custom fonts.
Setup
Just copy and paste the executable lf.exe
into an accessible directory, like c:\windows\system32\
or
add any custom path to Global Variables PATH
.
To see the devicons
filetype, you need to install a console monotype font from
NerdFonts website, and customize your Console window properties changing the default font
to the NerdFonts you chose to install.
Usage
Type lf
in your console prompt, and if installed correctly, you will see your files
listed similar to the following snapshot.

Compile
Use Lazarus-ide to compile, the code is crossplatform, so it might work on Linux too, but it needs some fixes to correctly list some files.
