Support.

I am born dyslexic and mentally ill, it took a lot of effort to make this project.

  • The future changes can break your config.
  • Scirpts that start's with t can be opened using terminal.
  • All of the scripts can be configured through config files in configs.

Installation

  • Install configs: make install-configs
  • Install scripts: sudo make install-scripts

Uninstallation

  • Uninstall configs: make uninstall-configs
  • Uninstall scripts: sudo make uninstall-scripts

Keybindings

  • Start sxhkd using command after installation.

sxhkd -c ~/.config/pulsar/pulsar-sxhkdrc

  • If you want to include your existing configs.

sxhkd -c your-existing-config -c ~/.config/pulsar/pulsar-sxhkdrc

Requirements

  • sxhkd for keybindings (optional).
  • make for installation. (important)
  • xautomation for xte-type script (optional).
  • xclip for xclip-file-copy script (optional).
  • xdotool for xdotool-type-file script (optional).
  • fzf for tpulsar scripts (can be changed in tpulsar.conf).
  • dmenu for pulsar scripts (can be changed in pulsar.conf).

Development

  • Editor should be vscode or geany (word-wrap disabled and tab -> 4 spaces).
  • Recommended vscode extension is ANSI Decorator or figlet command.
  • If you have dyslexia then font Cascadia Code and high contrast dark theme will help (Github-Dark-Default is nice).
