Apple - Reveal in Finder from the Terminal
How do I reveal a file that I have the path for in the Terminal in Finder? I don't think that open will work for this.
From man open
:
-R Reveals the file(s) in the Finder instead of opening them.
So, open -R /path/to/a/file.ext
will reveal your file in the Finder...
Specifically I want to be able to fzf for a file and then pop it in Finder.
In its most basic usage the following will reveal in Finder the file selected from the execution of "$(fzf)"
:
open -R "$(fzf)"
The following fzf
key bindings will map ctrl-r
to reveal the file in the Finder and ctrl-space
to a QuickLook of the file:
fzf --bind 'ctrl-r:execute(open -R {}),ctrl-space:execute-silent(qlmanage -p {})'
