Projektgeschichte

The GitHub repository was created in 2025 and the crate was published to crates.io the same month. The README presents the project as a small Rust CLI focused on essential tree-viewing features without broad configuration surface.

The project combines familiar `tree` behavior with modern terminal conveniences: LS_COLORS-aware coloring, optional icons, file sizes and permissions, git status markers, .gitignore-aware filtering, OSC 8 hyperlinks, and an interactive mode with keyboard navigation.

Adoptionsgeschichte

lstr is newer than long-established tools such as tree, but it has already been packaged for Homebrew and Nix in the supplied package facts, and the README notes NetBSD package availability. The GitHub repository shows substantial early interest for a young filesystem CLI.

Wie es verwendet wird

The basic CLI form is `lstr [OPTIONS] [PATH]`, defaulting to the current directory. Users can limit depth, show only directories, respect ignore files, sort by name, size, modification time, or extension, and pipe classic output to tools such as fzf, less, or bat.

The interactive mode is launched with `lstr interactive [OPTIONS] [PATH]`. The README documents keyboard controls for moving, expanding directories, opening files in `$EDITOR`, quitting, and printing a selected path to stdout for shell integration.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

lstr is representative of a modern wave of Rust replacements and companions for familiar Unix tools: not a wholesale reinvention of the shell, but a focused binary that adds git awareness, color conventions, icons, and TUI ergonomics while staying close to the `tree` mental model.
