viddy is a modern replacement for the Unix watch command. It executes commands periodically and displays results with colored output and diff highlighting. Its standout feature is time machine mode, which lets you rewind through past command outputs. Press Space to toggle time machine mode, then use arrow keys to navigate history. Includes vim-like keybindings and a pager.
