Keyboard select patch #149

Closed Barbaross93 closed 1 year ago

Barbaross93 commented 1 year ago

Is there was any interest in including the keyboard-select patch with xst?

why not just use tmux instead of re-implementing all that logic anew?

Barbaross93 commented 1 year ago

Because it doesn't make sense to start a new tmux session with every new terminal?

By that logic, why bother including a way to parse urls with dmenu and xurls when we could just do this with tmux:

bind-key u capture-pane \; save-buffer /tmp/tmux-buffer \; run-shell "xurls /tmp/tmux-buffer | dmenu"

i am agree, that feels also not necessary for terminal emulator

Barbaross93 commented 1 year ago

Ok, I guess there is no interest here.

Thanks for the response.

i only left my opinion, mb @neeasade would like it

I agree, leaving it to the tmux users

This is more an accident of history when I was using xst as my terminal emulator and wanted that bind -- xresources bindings may enable configuring it in a more sensible place in the future
