Working with files

Open files from the terminal, preview artifacts inline, and edit documents.

taiku doesn't limit you to raw terminal text. When a session produces files, paths, or documents, you can open them right inside the workspace. This page splits into two:

Open a file from the terminal

When a command prints a path, you can click it instead of copying it into another tool. taiku resolves relative paths against the shell's working directory, then opens the target — as a preview if it's a file, or as a new shell rooted there if it's a directory.

For everything that opens from there — supported preview types, streamed previews for large media, and tile vs. overlay placement — see File previews. For writing and editing markdown and MDX, see Documents.
