Could we have a shortcut for `] activate`?

This is the most typed command besides status, add and update. We already have shortcuts for status (st) and update (up), could we also have one for activate (at) ?

] at folder
] st
] up

I know we can type ac, press TAB and then SPACE, but it doesn’t hurt to ask for a shortcut.

What are people’s opinions on this?

Love the idea, but needs a small correction imho.
Status abbreviates to st.
Update abbreviates to up.
Why should Activate abbreviate to something else than ac?

It was just a suggestion. I find at appealing because it reminds us that we are “at” a given folder or environment, but any shortcut should be fine.

I have an alias of j to julia --project=.

I usually (re)launch Julia in VSCode with Alt+J + Alt + R. It activates the environment of the current folder. However, sometimes I develop multiple packages in the same VSCode workspace, and in this case I need to manually activate folders.

It’s appealing, but not compatible with autocomplete in REPL

While very much biased, I’m rather partial to the approach I took in the DataToolkit.jl REPL mode: any string that is a unique prefix or subsequence of a command invokes the command, with a helpful message when there are multiple matches.

(in the above image/example, stk would pick stack, and sr would pick store for instance).

I see I need to fix an compat issue with 1.13, but I think this should also be compatible with autocomplete.
