Fnf – interactive fuzzy finder for the terminal

Fnf is an interactive fuzzy finder for the terminal. It reads newline-separated items from standard input and provides an incremental selection interface where typed queries are used to score, filter, highlight, and sort matching candidates.

It’s a fork of fzy, adding features such as 256 and 24-bit color support, configurable padding, and multi-selection.

This is free and open source software.
