Français · English

Terminal client to browse, filter, search, and download resources from lbxmb.fr

---

Installation

Script (Linux / macOS)

curl -fsSL https://git.lbxmb.fr/lbxmb/cli/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

The binary is installed to ~/.local/bin/lbxmb (or /usr/local/bin if you have write access).
The script adds that directory to the PATH for bash (~/.bashrc), zsh (~/.zshrc), and fish (~/.config/fish/config.fish). Open a new terminal afterwards.

Script (Windows)

In PowerShell:

irm https://git.lbxmb.fr/lbxmb/cli/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.ps1 | iex

The binary is installed to %LOCALAPPDATA%\lbxmb and added to the user PATH. Open a new terminal afterwards, then run lbxmb.

Local build

git clone https://git.lbxmb.fr/lbxmb/cli.git
cd cli
go build -o lbxmb ./cmd/lbxmb
./lbxmb

Go 1.23 or newer is required.

Releases

Download the archive for your OS / architecture from
git.lbxmb.fr/lbxmb/cli/releases,
then extract lbxmb (lbxmb.exe on Windows).

Usage

lbxmb
lbxmb update
lbxmb --version
lbxmb --help

First launch

On startup, the app asks for:

1. The language (French or English)
2. A default download folder

Choice	Behavior
Yes	Enter a path (e.g. ~/Downloads/lbxmb) — it is saved
No	The path will be asked on every download

Config file:

OS	Path
Linux / macOS	~/.config/lbxmb/config.yaml
Windows	%APPDATA%\lbxmb\config.yaml

language: en
download_dir: /home/you/Downloads/lbxmb

• language: fr or en
• download_dir: leave empty to prompt for a path every time

Navigation

Arrow keys, WASD (QWERTY), and ZQSD (AZERTY) are equivalent.

Key	Action
↑ ↓ / w s / z s	Move through the list
← → / a d / q d / Tab	Switch pane
/	Search
Enter	Show details
t	Download (option picker: OS, console, packs…)
p	Toggle sort: recent / popular
f / F	Add to favorites / favorites list
y	Download history
b	Open the resource’s web page
o	Open the last download folder
?	Help (shortcuts)
n	Next page
r	Refresh
Esc / Ctrl+C	Back / quit

q and d are navigation only (left / right) — they no longer quit or download.

When a resource has several files (Windows / Linux / macOS, or Switch packs such as tagNX), t opens a picker: first the group if there are several, then the file.

Update

lbxmb update

The command checks the latest release (lbxmb/cli) and, after confirmation, replaces the binary.
The TUI never updates itself — a bad release will not break an already running app. Restart lbxmb afterwards.

lbxmb update --yes   # skip confirmation
