.SH DESCRIPTION
A cross\-platform, fast and extensible general purpose fuzzy finder TUI.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-preview\fR=\fISTRING\fR
A preview command to use with the stdin channel.

If provided, the preview command will be executed and formatted using
the entry.
Example: "bat \-n \-\-color=always {}" (where {} will be replaced with
the entry)

Parts of the entry can be extracted positionally using the `delimiter`
option.
Example: "echo {0} {1}" will split the entry by the delimiter and pass
the first two fields to the command.
.TP
\fB\-\-no\-preview\fR
Disable the preview panel entirely on startup.
.TP
\fB\-\-delimiter\fR=\fISTRING\fR [default:  ]
The delimiter used to extract fields from the entry to provide to the
preview command.

See the `preview` option for more information.
.TP
\fB\-t\fR, \fB\-\-tick\-rate\fR=\fIFLOAT\fR
The application\*(Aqs tick rate.

The tick rate is the number of times the application will update per
second. This can be used to control responsiveness and CPU usage on
very slow machines or very fast ones but the default should be a good
compromise for most users.
.TP
\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-frame\-rate\fR=\fIFLOAT\fR
[DEPRECATED] Frame rate, i.e. number of frames to render per second.

This option is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
.TP
\fB\-k\fR, \fB\-\-keybindings\fR=\fISTRING\fR
Keybindings to override the default keybindings.

This can be used to override the default keybindings with a custom subset
The keybindings are specified as a semicolon separated list of keybinding
expressions using the configuration file formalism.

Example: `tv \-\-keybindings=\*(Aqquit="esc";select_next_entry=["down","ctrl\-j"]\*(Aq`
.TP
\fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-input\fR=\fISTRING\fR
Input text to pass to the channel to prefill the prompt.

This can be used to provide a default value for the prompt upon
startup.
.TP
\fB\-\-custom\-header\fR=\fISTRING\fR
Input fields header title

This can be used to give the input field a custom title e.g. the current
working directory.
The default value for the input header is the current channel.
.TP
\fB\-\-autocomplete\-prompt\fR=\fISTRING\fR
Try to guess the channel from the provided input prompt.

This can be used to automatically select a channel based on the input
prompt by using the `shell_integration` mapping in the configuration
file.
.TP
\fB\-\-select\-1\fR
Automatically select and output the first entry if there is only one
entry.

Note that most channels stream entries asynchronously which means that
knowing if there\*(Aqs only one entry will require waiting for the channel
to finish loading first.

For most channels and workloads this shouldn\*(Aqt be a problem since the
loading times are usually very short and will go unnoticed by the user.
.TP
\fB\-\-no\-remote\fR
Disable the remote control.

This will disable the remote control panel and associated actions
entirely. This is useful when the remote control is not needed or
when the user wants `tv` to run in single\-channel mode (e.g. when
using it as a file picker for a script or embedding it in a larger
application).
.TP
\fB\-\-no\-help\fR
Disable the help panel.

This will disable the help panel and associated toggling actions
entirely. This is useful when the help panel is not needed or
when the user wants `tv` to run with a minimal interface (e.g. when
using it as a file picker for a script or embedding it in a larger
application).
.TP
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
Print help (see a summary with \*(Aq\-h\*(Aq)
.TP
\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR
Print version
.TP
[\fICHANNEL\fR] [default: files]
Which channel shall we watch?

A list of the available channels can be displayed using the
`list\-channels` command. The channel can also be changed from within
the application.
.TP
[\fIPATH\fR]
The working directory to start the application in.

This can be used to specify a different working directory for the
application to start in. This is useful when the application is
started from a different directory than the one the user wants to
interact with.
.SH SUBCOMMANDS
