fzf

Config for fzf.

Files

File	Loaded via	Notes
fzfrc	$env:FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS_FILE	Base layout/binding options

Color theme (catppuccin mocha/latte) is set dynamically in $env:FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS by the PowerShell profile based on the OS dark/light setting — mirrors nvim.

File and directory sources come from fd when it is installed: the profile sets FZF_DEFAULT_COMMAND / FZF_CTRL_T_COMMAND (files) and FZF_ALT_C_COMMAND (directories) to fd. This is deliberately decoupled from ripgreprc — rg is tuned exhaustive (--no-ignore) for searching, whereas the pickers want a clean, .gitignore-respecting list. Only the Alt+c directory picker strictly needs fd (rg cannot list directories). Without fd, fzf falls back to its built-in walker. Live Alt+f search (Invoke-FzfRipgrep) still uses rg.
