it's weird how most IDE's already figured out people want this. I can type in "New File" > "/foo/bar/baz" and it will work just fine. Is there any limitation as to why mkdir can't support recursive generation?
I'm surprised people do not know about this.
Maybe that is why they love these CLI tools written by Rust. ;)
Learn your basic UNIX/POSIX utilities first, please, before you start preaching because of Rust. :D

Maybe, jus maybe the defaults for UNIX/POSIX was just not good and thats why they Rust based one?
Maybe, just maybe I could fork "mkdir" just for you and make "-p" the default, in C?
Or maybe, just maybe you could make an alias for it, i.e. "alias mkdir="mkdir -p" so then it becomes the default?
sighs.
That is why I’m mostly using default tools. I like the idea of these tools, but autocomplete and fuzzy finding takes in aggregate more time than if I took a step back and actually configure my tools (shell alias and scripts, ssh config, git alias,…).
My current list of tools I install are:
- ripgrep. It’s just fast.
- fzf. For vim. I’ve never have a real use for it on the command.
- lf. Sometimes I want to quickly browse around a directory.
But more often than not, the core utilities work fine.
I use ripgrep and fzf as well. I have never heard of the last one.
But yeah, personally I just configure the default tools and be done with it for almost life. :D
