No, that’s not used by Zsh.

Glad you have it working. This may also work:

FWIW I’ve read an Arch dev complain that folks using any 3rd party installer are not in fact “running Arch” and should not claim to be doing so.
The window shade problem is keeping me from Wayland. AFAIU there’s currently no commitment to ever fix it on Wayland, it’s only a maybe.
For anyone interested, it’s being tracked here.
It’s more about replacing typed text than using shortcuts, but there’s espanso.
Ok next time I won’t use your computer.
I’ll just second the suggestion that KDE Plasma is worth a try, as it’s very adaptable once you know what you want. You don’t need to install any addons for the functionality you describe, just open the Shortcuts settings, KWin category, and have at it.
Ooh I haven’t seen this one. Anyone have a comment on this vs the KleverNotes project? I think that’s the name.
The Power and Battery widget now responds to middle-clicks and scrolls: middle-click will block or re-enable automatic sleep and screen locking, and scrolling will change the active power profile
Scrolling on the battery applet is how I adjust my brightness. Is that no longer a thing?
Have you checked the system settings page that includes compositor stuff?
I love Arch but you may also be interested to try Siduction for similar benefits with less change from what you know (it’s still Debian).
Yeah, since broot is a full featured file navigator and operator, you can get anywhere once it’s launched. I have alt+up bound to go up a directory, but there are other ways to get around as well.
Broot supports fish out of the box, and you can use its default fish launcher function to change your folder (alt+enter quits broot then performs a cd
) or insert a path (the broot command pp
quits broot then prints the path, like fzf).
I never learned fish scripting, but if anyone here has they may try to port my Zsh functions, especially to get path completion for partially typed paths. If you’re doing that and have questions about the broot config side of the equation, I’m happy to try to help.
FWIW broot is a great fuzzy finding file tree tool that can be used similarly (much better for the task IMO), with a little configuration.
Konsole is excellent. Wezterm is even better, and can pretty much do everything, everywhere.
There’s no need to bother with the others if you like either of these.
I don’t know what the install process is like for them, but FYI Siduction offers one image that is minimal but with X11, and one minimal without it.
It’s unmatched for some of the things it does and sites it supports, but I think it’s a nightmare for any distro or package maintainer. It wants to manage its own installation and updates, at the user level, pulling in who knows what code or binaries.
I think that makes it mechanically hard to handle, verify, or trust.
There are many advantages relative to bash, especially much better array handling, and comprehensive globbing and expansion expressions. You can reduce your reliance on external tools, which may have multiple alternative implementations (a source of unpredictability).

For me, fish’s differences from older shells count against it without offering any compelling benefits.
Newer shells like nushell and oils/ysh are exciting and have a lot going on, but are not mature or familiar.
For Alpine Linux:
mpv+uosc is my jam these days.
