I like the low-power aspect of TUIs, but the problem I have with using them over GUI software is there is no launcher or start menu functionality for TUI (re)discovery. I'll often find a cool TUI posted here, install it "for later" and then proceed to forget I ever installed it. When "for later" finally comes around, I have to guess the name using tab completion or open my browser, search my history and hope it's there.
Is there such a thing as a TUI launcher out there? Something that allows fuzzy search of program names, tags and a short description (using something akin to .desktop files for the application metadata). Then, when I suddenly need a program for a certain task, I don't have to hope I memorized the correct command. I just open my TUI launcher, type something related to my task and get a list of some TUIs that could help.
