Hello,

I really like the looks of Cheatsheet, over the years I've tried to create many similar tools for myself: but I'm limited to some fairly basic bash scripting. Thank you.

I anticipate having a split window in tmux with cheatsheet running in a thin column alongside whatever main terminal app I'm using (eg nano or mutt). Of course I'm sure I'll build up cheetsheets for lots of GUI apps too (GIMP) I have a few suggestions/ requests that i'll split into separate issues.

Please may I ask if (can you tell me how) I can edit the line:
"↑/k move up • ↓/j move down • / filter • esc exit filtering • ctrl+h help"
It's very simple but I'd like to add:
"ctrl+f toggle filter mode"
I'm brand new and till I build up the muscle memory I'm having to look at the help page all the time.

Also I notice that the smallest width I can set the CS pane to seems to be 73 char and that seems to be dictated but the length of the prompt line ==> is there anyway to hide that prompt line completely so that I can get it down to about 40-50 char wide please? EDIT: alternative could the app automagically change the prompt text to just "ctrl+h help" when the window size is under 70 char?

Many thanks in advance
