Termie

Termie is a Python script that utilizes the OpenAI API to generate and execute shell commands based on user input.

Usage

1. Make the Script Executable:

   To make the script executable, you can use the following command in your terminal:

   chmod +x termie

2. Adding a Symbolic Link to Bin

   To easily call the script from the terminal, create a symbolic link to the bin directory (or any directory in your system's PATH). For instance:

   ln -s /path/to/termie /usr/local/bin/termie

   Now you can run the script by simply typing termie in the terminal followed by your question as a string. For example:

   termie 'how do i remove all files that contain the extension .mp3 or .mp4?'

3. Adding the Environment Variable for OpenAI API Key

   Before using Termie, ensure you have your OpenAI API key set as an environment variable. You can do this by adding the following line to your shell profile (e.g., .bashrc, .zshrc):

   export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

4. Additional Steps

   You're almost set, but a few more considerations to keep in mind:

   Make sure you have the required Python packages installed. You can install them using pip:

   pip install openai

   Customize the OpenAI model and other parameters according to your needs within the termie script.
