About

Heavily inspired by the abandoned project https://github.com/microsoft/Codex-CLI Made into a oh-my-zsh plugin.

In your zsh console, type a question, starting with comment sign #, hit ctrl+g and get an answer.

Tip

New in v. 1.2.0 Use doble ## to use gpt-4 model.

# Who edited README.MD last according to git history?

ChatGPT will then answer with e.g.:

git log -1 --format="%an" README.md

Hit enter to execute or ctrl+c to deny.

If asked a question that will not resolve in a command, GPT is instructed to use #.

# Who was Norways first prime minister?
# Norway's first prime minister was Frederik Stang, serving from 1873 to 1880.
