Natural language to bash translation

The cw ai command lets you write a natural language instruction such as “copy all files in my current directory to Amazon S3”. CodeWhisperer will then translate it to an instantly executable shell code snippet. The cw ai command is useful in those common situations where the correct bash syntax is easy to forget. Examples include reversing a git commit, finding strings inside files with grep, or compressing files with tar.

To get started, run either of the following

• cw ai prompt

• # prompt

To opt out of using # to invoke CodeWhisperer, go to Settings -> Translate and toggle off Hashtag substitution.
