fpath: Reformat and stylize file path like text output. (Python, terminal)

I did it again; exaggerate a simple idea and make it look more complicated at the end with too much text in the readme. I was bothered with the output of file listings and how unreadable they can get, especially with long paths and many of them on screen. At the end, I am not sure how useful this will be in the long run, but that is something you can judge yourself. It was certainly fun to create and in my opinion it’s also fun to use.

— What is this? Convenience script to style and reformat the output with path like formats. Designed to combine listings from other programs output, such as from find and even ls, or any other tool with similar capabilities. The script works mostly on text data rather than the file system, but some special commands are exception to this rule and will access the file system. —
