+# Description: Pick files and pipe the newline-separated list to another utility
+#
+# Shell: POSIX compliant
+# Author: Arun Prakash Jana
+#
+# Usage:
+# Copy this file in your $PATH, make it executable and preferably name it to picker.
+# Run commands like:
+#   ls -l `picker`
+#   cd `picker`
+#   vimdiff `picker`
+# or, in fish shell:
+#   ls -l (picker)
+#   cd (picker)
+#   vimdiff (picker)
+#
+# NOTE: This use case is limited to picking files, other functionality may not work as expected.
