Facebook PathPicker
Hey everyone, I'm in the main engineer on this project if anyone has questions.<p>Facebook has a large codebase, so naturally we have a lot of long filenames and paths. It's a pain to type these out by hand, so I'd see a lot of (new) engineers select the text with their mouse before pasting it into the command line.<p>This is pretty inefficient and I knew there had to be a better way, so a few of us started hacking on a set of python regexes and a curses UI. Before long we had a pretty simple / easy command line utility that sped up everyones' day.<p>After a while we realized this would probably be helpful to all, so we open sourced it today!
