Fuzzy cli install function/script

For those looking for a nice cli "fuzzy" install function:  https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?p=686448#p686448

FWIW I modified it to use both nala as well as fzf.

Code Select Expand

#! /bin/bash
# this script utilizes nala & fzf (which need to installed)
# you may modify this to use apt instead of nala
# simply change "nala" to "apt"

apt-cache pkgnames | fzf --multi --cycle --reverse --preview "apt-cache show {1}" --preview-window=:57%:wrap:hidden --bind=space:toggle-preview | xargs -ro sudo nala install
