filechat

"The hottest new programming language is English" - Andrej Karpathy

no more memorizing unix command cheatsheets... filechat is all you need
filechat lets you talk to your computing with plain english 🗣️

e.g. telling the computer in english update permissions so that owners can have read/write access to photos is a lot easier to remember than find / -name "*.jpg" -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
