Lazylist: Your Terminal-Based File Management Solution

Imagine This Scenario，You’ve just joined a new company or research lab. One day, an IT veteran introduces you to something called Linux—an entirely different world of operating systems. They explain that you’ll need a magical tool called SSH to access it.

After some effort, you successfully log in, only to discover that this system doesn’t have a graphical interface. Instead, everything must be done through something cryptically referred to as the shell.

Now, you’re tasked with installing a piece of software. The expert casually tells you, "Just run a few commands: wget, then cd, and finally xxx. Easy!"

You sit down at the terminal, sweating nervously as you try to follow their instructions. Then, in a moment of confusion, you accidentally type:rm -rf *
