# Command-line Interface
|
|
|
|
Zed has a CLI, on Linux this should come with the distribution's Zed package (binary name can vary from distribution to distribution, `zed` will be used later for brevity).
|
|
For macOS, the CLI comes in the same package with the editor binary, and could be installed into the system with the `cli: install` Zed command which will create a symlink to the `/usr/local/bin/zed`.
|
|
It can also be built from source out of the `cli` crate in this repository.
|
|
|
|
Use `zed --help` to see the full list of capabilities.
|
|
General highlights:
|
|
|
|
- Opening another empty Zed window: `zed`
|
|
|
|
- Opening a file or directory in Zed: `zed /path/to/entry` (use `-n` to open in the new window)
|
|
|
|
- Reading from stdin: `ps axf | zed -`
|
|
|
|
- Starting Zed with logs in the terminal: `zed --foreground`
|
|
|
|
- Uninstalling Zed and all its related files: `zed --uninstall`
