The normal complaint new Zellij users have is that it has a lot of keybindings which are likely to conflict with programs like nvim or Helix that use a lot themselves. Before, the workflow was to lock Zellij with ctrl-g which let input go through to the focused shell/program.

The new mode has most of the keybindings behind the ctrl-g lock, e.g. a new tab is ctrl-g t n (instead of ctrl-t n). You can still use alt-(cursor) for changing focus and alt-n/alt-f for a new tiled/floating pane, but all other key presses get passed along.

You can switch between default and unlock-first (non-colliding) modes so if you need those alt shortcuts you can lock everything as before.

Plus some other nice features like being able to change modifier keys while running (via the Kitty Keyboard Protocol), and autoloading the new config when you edit the file.

After almost 3 years of work, I've finally managed to get this project stable enough to release an alpha version!

I'm proud to present Managarr - A TUI and CLI for managing your Servarr instances! At the moment, the alpha version only supports Radarr.

Not all features are implemented for the alpha version, like managing quality profiles or quality definitions, etc.

Here's some screenshots of the TUI:

Additionally, you can use it as a CLI for Radarr; For example, to search for a new film:

managarr radarr search-new-movie --query "star wars"

Or you can add a new movie by its TMDB ID:

managarr radarr add movie --tmdb-id 1895 --root-folder-path /nfs/movies --quality-profile-id 1

All features available in the TUI are also available via the CLI.

This program written in C will render the matrix effect in the terminal window in the background, while rendering an image in the foreground, allowing animation of this image in one or two dimensions.

Image rendering is done with chafa.

This program is the continuation and evolution of other projects:

Hello Lemmy,

This is an extension of the bluetuith TUI Bluetooth Manager project, which was initially developed for Linux, and is now being ported to Windows as well. This will allow the TUI to manage Bluetooth on Windows. Note that this is just a shim, the TUI will be ported to adapt with this shim later.

This tool offers a simple command-line interface and a socket-based interface (as an interprocess communication layer) to control Bluetooth Classic based functions, like:

• Getting adapter information, performing device discovery, setting power states
• Getting device information, pairing/unpairing a device
• Connection to a device using various Bluetooth profiles
  • The supported profiles are A2DP, MAP, PBAP and OPP
  • Each connectable profile appears as a subcommand of the connect command
  • Every subcommand has multiple functions. View the documentation for more information.

This is currently alpha stage, so do expect bugs. Any bugs can be reported in the issue tracker.

I hope you enjoy this release, and any constructive feedback is appreciated.

Rook provides a secret service a-la secret-tool, keyring, or pass/gopass, except backed by a Keepass kdbx file.

The problem Rook solves is mainly in script automation, where you have aerc, offlineimap, isync, vdirsyncer, msmtp, restic, or any other cron jobs that need passwords and which are often configured to fetch these passwords from a secret service with a CLI tool. Unlike existing solutions, Rook is headless, and does not have a bespoke secrets database full of passwords that must be manually synchronized with Keepass; instead, it uses a Keepass db directly.

Rook is in the AUR and in Alpine testing; binaries are available from the project page.

From the changelog, since the last Lemmy release announcement v0.1.3 on May 20:

[v0.2.0] Fri Oct 11 09:01:03 2024 -0500

Added

• support for password + key file credentials
• show --no-eol option, to strip CRs after, eg, passwords

Changed

• show matches search: it's now case insensitive

Fixed

• successful OPEN with password wasn't clearing the one-time pin, so the DB was staying locked.

stmps is a fork of stmp, under active development and with several additional features. (*) items are PRs which also been accepted by the stmp project.

• mpris support (*)
• improved help text
• improved playlist handling, including concurrent loading in the background
• improved browser behavior, e.g. add all songs by an artist
• global, server-side search
• artist search in the browser (*)
• TUI-less server information query
• queue reordering
• queue shuffling
• randomly add songs to the queue
• randomly add similar songs to the queue, using the Subsonic "get similar songs" feature

It's fast, keyboard driven, and a single executable; it is regularly tested against Navidrome and Gonic.

stmps can be installed by a simple go install command, and it's also in AUR as stmps.

I'm not the author, but am one of the active contributors.

Also available here. (Docker image)

From the changelog, since the last Lemmy release announcement (v0.0.9):

[v0.1.3] Mon May 20 17:12:25 2024 -0500

Added

• status command, a more lightweight way of testing if a DB is open. Using this instead of info in e.g. statusbar scripts greatly reduces CPU load.
• case-insensitive search.

Changed

• removing some nil panics that could occur when DB is closed while a client call is being processed.

Fixed

• a hidden bug in the OTP pin code.
• some errors being ignored (and therefore not logged)
• TOTP attributes getting missed by otp generator check

[v0.1.2] Fri Apr 26 15:13:55 2024 -0500

Added

• one-time pin soft locking
• installation instructions for distributions that have rook in a repository
• more of the special autotype {} commands are supported (backspace, space, esc)

Changed

• getAttr adds a little delay before typing, allowing initiator tools (like rofi) to close windows before text is output
• cleans up code per golint/gochk

Fixed

• an autotype bug in outputting literals

[v0.1.1] Sun Mar 17 13:44:54 2024 -0500

Added

• the original source rook.svg
• ability to start the rook server passing in the password via stdin pipe.

Changed

• assets moved to directory
• documentation referenced Keepass v4; there's no such thing, it's v2.
• license, was missing (c) from original
• stop trying to remove the version number from build assets
• documentation to clarify when the master password exists as plain text, in response to questions from @[email protected]

[v0.1.0] Fri Mar 15 14:03:25 2024 -0500

Added

• nfpm file
• logo

Changed

• clears out the password so it's not being held in plain text by the flags library.
• some of the documentation, and fixes the duplicated v0.0.9 entry in the changelog.
• CI build targets are more limited, but also include some distro packages
• better README documentation

Removed

• the monitor attribute was taken out, as rook no longer busy-polls the DB

so, about a month ago i stumbled upon the duckduckgo ai chat feature and wrote an article about how private their APIs are, and a few weeks after, a CLI client.

the thing is in a pretty mature stage now (its not like there is a lot of work to be done there tbh)

its not super private, but it is "private enough". the only thing duckduckgo has is your IP, which is usually not much unless you are on a residential connection with a dedicated IP

I use this tool instead of dig and kdig.

A blog post shows an example usage of hyperfine CLI tool to measure and plot time of startup and shutdown of several code interpreters.

This is a tui implementation of the popular classic naval battle game, written in Bash.

The objective of the game is to destroy the computer's fleet, before the computer achieves the same against you.

You take turns with the computer, hitting squares in each other's grids.

You have to guess the position of the enemy ships on the computer's 10x10 grid, in order to win.

You lose if the computer achieves sinking your ships first.
