Open command that only opens directories?

[shmcgrath]

Hello,

I would like to have an open command/keybind that only opens directories. I tried cd $f and a few variations on that, but no luck. Anyone have a solution to this? I want to replace my right motions with this.

Thanks!

Hello @shmcgrath,
I have this keybinding in my config because I constantly kept opening files by accident while navigating through directories (you can obviously remove the print statement 😃):

map l %{{
    if [ -d "$f" ]; then
        lf -remote "send $id open"
    else
        printf "Not a directory"
    fi
}}

To open files I have to press <enter>:

map <enter> open

This is exactly what I had been trying to do. Thank you so much! Happy New Year!

Happy new year 🎉

Btw if you don't want to print something like I did, I'd suggest you using & instead of % to avoid some flickering.
