Features

This section documents the user-facing capabilities of fzf — the things you'd typically reach for from the man page or README. Each feature spans multiple parts of the code, so these pages cross-link to the systems pages where the underlying implementation lives.

Pages

• Search syntax — extended-search operators ('exact, ^prefix, suffix$, !neg, | OR).
• Preview window — the --preview system, placeholder language, image protocols.
• Key bindings and actions — --bind, the action language, transform-*, reload, become.
• Shell integration — the embedded Bash/Zsh/Fish key bindings and fuzzy completion.
• Vim plugin — plugin/fzf.vim, :FZF, fzf#run.
• Popup modes — --tmux, --popup (Zellij), bin/fzf-tmux, --height.
• Listen mode — controlling fzf via HTTP / Unix socket.
• Filter mode — --filter, the non-interactive scan-and-print path.
