File Search Modi #297

Closed mcbridet closed 8 years ago

mcbridet commented 8 years ago

This is a crazy / future sort of thing, but how hard would it be to implement a modi to look for files (in configured paths / home by default). This would bring rofi closer to being a 'Spotlight' (for OSX) kinda thing, and would be a nice thing to have. :)

Let me know your thoughts.

This can be added using scripts. This is currently not something I plan to integrate directly into Rofi. See here for a simple file browser that can be ran like:

rofi -modi "file:./rofi-file-browser.sh,drun" -show file

If somebody makes a good patch that adds functionality (without adding obscure depencies) and is willing to maintain it, I will accept it.
