Marker is a command palette for the terminal. It lets you bookmark commands (or commands templates) and easily retreive them with the help of a real-time fuzzy matcher.
It's also shipped with many commands common usage(Thanks to tldr).
- A UI selector that lets you easily select the desired command if more than one command is matched.
- Fuzzy matching (through commands and their descriptions).
- Command template: You can bookmark commands with place-holders and place the cursor at those place-holders using a keyboard shortcut.
- Portability across supported shells: you can use bookmarked commands in both Bash and Zshell.

In OSX, it seems like Bash 3.x is the default shell which is not supported. you have to update your Bash to 4.3 or change your shell to zshell in order to use Marker.
