QUESTION
macOS 11.4 , Alacritty 0.8.0 installed from homebrew 3.2.5 , although this should not matter because the question is mostly related to macOS UI.
What I want to do is something equivalent to Terminal.app
's right click on icon > New Window
sort of thing; Alacritty does not support windows.
On Linux, I'm used to launching new instance of alacritty
with background
option in dmenu
.
On a mac, what would a similar action look like ?

QUESTION
In the following script (form here)
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Aug-07 at 14:28With sed -n "w $tmpfile"; sed -i 's/\x0//g' "$tmpfile"
you're copying piped input to a temp file then using sed with an "inplace" editing option to modify that temp file. That doesn't make sense vs just 1 call to sed: sed 's/\x0//g' > "$tmpfile"
As for why it's hanging:
- Guess 1: you're not piping any input to it (the first comment says
# Using external pipe...
thereby telling you the command requires piped input even if you can't read the script). - Guess 2: you're now on a machine that has a version of sed that requires a backup file name (e.g. BSD sed) and so
sed -i 's/\x0//g' "$tmpfile"
is using's/\x0//g'
as the backup file name and"$tmpfile"
as the script with no input.
The command has several other portability, robustness, and efficiency issues - you might want to throw it away and write a different script.
I took another look at that script and you should definitely throw it away as it gets a lot wrong, e.g. line by line and without knowing what the input/output is so guessing in parts:
QUESTION
How can i retrieve those two lines:
Changing discoverable off succeeded [CHG] Controller 64:6E:69:F4:9E:72 Discoverable: no
Basically grabbing the output or other possible error outputs and discarding the rest of the garbage
I'm attempting to do a fork of a very simple bluethooth dmenu bash script, and I am being somewhat successful at it, but since I've considered releasing it to the public, it has to have error handling and be a generally rounded script, etc...
What im trying to now do is when i echo "power off" | bluethothctl i want to get the messages it sends internally like: Changing discoverable off succeeded, org.bluez.something is blocked, etc...
I've tried while read -r debug, putting it to a $( ) and then debugging it with notify or echo but i always get either the outside garbage(like Agent registered, [IFROGZ] discoverable off, etc..)
Is there a way i can grab those delicious internal message's bluetoothctl sends internally to a variable without boogaloo tactics(like outputting everything to a file and then reading it)
I think what i said above is the only thing you hopefully solve this question for me but just because previously i've been downvoted for not showing code here's a part of it
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-07 at 12:39I am not sure that bluetoothctl
was intended to be used in this way. BlueZ has a documented API that uses DBus bindings available for most languages at:

This can be done from the bash command line below:

QUESTION
I was using i3. Now I want to see dwm. Made keybidings to run firefox on Modkey+w
. It works well, but now when I want to do similar commands for nvim, ranger, cmus (all terminal programs) it isn't working. Can't run them from dmenu also. Is it ok, or I just fiddled with my config files?
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jan-12 at 18:29Nvim and Ranger run in the terminal, so just running the binaries won't do anything. You'll need to run them in your terminal. How that works depends on your terminal, but it is likely something like your-terminal -e ranger
, or static const char *ranger[] = {"xterm", "-e", "/usr/bin/ranger", NULL };
for example.

that simply takes all its arguments, concatenates them, and converts the resulting string use 'aLtErNaTiNg CaPs'. I have written a simple one-line shell script that will let me use dmenu to enter text, run that text through this program, and copy the result to my clipboard. Here is what I have:

QUESTION
I have an issue with a function I took from XMonad.Util.Dmenu, namely dmenuXinerama (see below). It seems like this is happening:
These functions block xmonad's event loop until dmenu exits; this means that programs will not be able to open new windows and you will not be able to change workspaces or input focus until you have responded to the prompt one way or another.
What happens is that I spawn a menu instance and it appears, but once I run something from there, everything is blocked, and I can't do anything.
This is the function:
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Dec-14 at 07:33I think dmenu_run
doesn't exit (until the program you start with it does), so it is not suitable for use with runProcessWithInput
. Use dmenu_path
and dmenu
instead, then spawn
the result.
