dmenu

> CLIs (that read input from stdin and spit out results to stdout/stderr) are useful in an automation/data processing pipeline. TUI's and GUI's can both be used in the middle of a pipe when things require some manual fiddling, Git commit would be an example of this, opening vim to edit the commit message. Here's an example (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8371877/ncurses-and-linux-pipeline/44884859#44884859) of how you could create an ncurses TUI but still output to stdout. Dmenu (https://tools.suckless.org/dmenu/) is a good example of a gui program that fits comfortably in a pipeline.

LNAV

100% agreed. Also VisiData looks cool, thanks for the link. In this space, I'm a huge fan of Lnav (https://lnav.org) which fits similar use cases as a TUI / CLI for ETL workflows (w embedded SQLite), works great at the scale of a few millions of rows.

A little late to the article, if anyone is still reading comments I recommend cmus, a console music player with extensive key bindings and library support. https://cmus.github.io/.
