The README frames the tool around shell ergonomics: Python-like slice syntax, negative indexing, regex separators using Rust regex syntax, and faster behavior than `cut` on sufficiently long inputs. A v0.1.0 tag appears in September 2019, v1.0.0 in April 2020, and later release lines continued through v1.3.7 in August 2025. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The upstream README documents installation through Cargo, Homebrew as choose-rust, MacPorts, Arch AUR, and a Fedora/CentOS COPR. Homebrew's formula API reports stable version 1.3.7 and ongoing installs. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users invoke `choose` with one or more field selectors, ranges, or slice-like expressions, optionally changing field separators or selecting characters rather than fields. It is aimed at quick interactive and scripted shell data extraction where `awk '{print $1}'` or `cut` syntax feels too heavy. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren It is a classic modern CLI package-manager entry: a Rust rewrite/rethink of a POSIX-era text utility, distributed through Cargo plus system package managers, and intentionally overlapping with familiar tools rather than replacing them completely. ### Zeitleiste - 2019: Repository created and v0.1.0 tag appears. - 2020: v1.0.0 tag appears and v1.3.x releases begin. - 2024: v1.3.5 and v1.3.6 releases published. - 2025: v1.3.7 release published; Homebrew stable version reports 1.3.7. ### Related projects - Directly related tools are `cut` and `awk`, which the README uses as its comparison points. The Rust regex crate is part of its documented separator model, and Cargo is one of its official distribution channels. ### Quellen - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - MacPorts - choose: installed executable or alias match | MacPorts ports tree: textproc/choose/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Nix - choose: installed executable or alias match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/ch/choose/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - apk - choose - 1.3.7-r0: installed executable or alias match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: choose from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | A human-friendly and fast alternative to cut and (sometimes) awk | https://github.com/theryangeary/choose - pacman - choose - 1.3.7-2: installed executable or alias match | Arch Linux sync databases: choose from https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/extra/os/x86_64/extra.db.tar.gz | A human-friendly and fast alternative to cut and (sometimes) awk | https://github.com/theryangeary/choose - zypper - choose - 1.3.7-1.5: installed executable or alias match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: choose from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | A human-friendly and fast alternative to cut and (sometimes) awk | https://github.com/theryangeary/choose - Scoop - main/choose: installed executable or alias match | Scoop official bucket manifest trees: bucket/choose.json from https://api.github.com/repos/ScoopInstaller/Main/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
