Description

Keyboard-driven menus can be built in the terminal for launching apps, choosing files, or replacing CtrlP-style workflows. This Python tool is useful for users who want a dependency-light dynamic menu with optional most-recent ordering. It may run selected commands or expose history choices, so menu sources should be reviewed.
