only-cli Wikipedia with oc
Wikipedia shortcuts, which resolve to a URL and then render like any other page:
oc wiki search <query>searches Wikipedia and lists the matching articles, each with a snippet, its size, and when it was last edited.oc wiki article <title>renders that article. The title takes every word after it, sooc wiki article Eiffel Towerworks unquoted.oc wiki lang <code> <title>renders the article from another language wiki:oc wiki lang de Berlinreads the German article.
The generic commands work on whatever is open:
oc do <n>follows the link behind number[n]on the page you just rendered. Following a search result is alwaysoc do <n>, never a second command with a URL.oc find <query>prints every place a string appears on the page already open, one line per match with the number to read it by.oc read <n>prints the region at[n]in full: one block with its context, or a whole section when[n]is a heading.oc nextprints the next ~500 tokens of the page already open, continuing where the last view stopped.oc raw [url]returns the whole page as distilled markdown. With no URL it uses the page already open.oc open <url>renders any URL, for when you have one already.
Tips:
- A view is capped at about 500 tokens.
... 164 more blocks (~7,100 tokens)at the end is the price of the rest of the page. - On a long article,
oc find <query>thenoc read <n>on the match is the cheapest way to one fact. Reach foroc rawonly when you truly need the whole page. - Numbers belong to the most recent page, so read the newest output before picking one.
- Quote URLs that contain
&or?.
