Subject: [ELPA] Proposal to add consult-dir to ELPA
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2024 21:05:23 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ldxmmmlo.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I'd like to add my package consult-dir to ELPA.  The package is
developed at

https://github.com/karthink/consult-dir

Here is what it does:

Consult-dir allows you to easily insert directory paths into the
minibuffer prompt in Emacs.

When using the minibuffer, you can switch to any directory you've
visited recently, or to any project root, a bookmarked directory, or a
remote host via tramp.

This is useful

- For specifying a "destination" to any command that reads a file or
  directory name from the minibuffer.  You can use it when finding files
  or directories, copying files, attaching files to emails, and so on.
  It works without assumptions on the command being invoked, so you can
  use it even if you just want to copy some directory path into the
  kill-ring.

- When you want to quickly access a resource that is "far away" in the
  filesystem tree from `default-directory'.

I have found it to be a surprisingly versatile tool, and many users have
told me over the years that it solves a problem they didn't realize they
had.

I have signed the copyright papers, and there are no contributions to
the project from users over 3-4 lines in length.  Consult-dir's only
external dependency (Consult) is in ELPA.

Thank you,
Karthik
