Hello dev, it's a nice app which catalogs a wide variety of commands which are pretty useful in operating on a linux system. I have found a bug recently. In my Android 15 phone, when I click 'aider' in the commands section. The app crashes. Or it sometimes opens the 'aider' command, but when I click on the 'synopsis' option. The app crashes. I have tried many times, and all the time, it crashes mostly on the synopsis option of the command 'aider'. Fix this.
