Missing installing the requirements on ulauncher extension description #14

Closed hillaryychan closed 2 years ago

hillaryychan commented 2 years ago

After reading and installing the requirements on the GitHub page.... it works! :smiley: :+1:

Please put a little reminder on the extension description page that one should install those tools first. (I'm a coder, but I'm intentionally doing this from a users' perspective)

Make it clear that fzf and fd should be installed for extension to be used on https://ext.ulauncher.io/-/github-hillaryychan-ulauncher-fzf

Just to add, it is far from being clear which fd must be installed (at least at Ubuntu 22.04). There is no fd package in Ubuntu and the shell gives this (wrong) hint:

$ fd
Command 'fd' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install fdclone

When the actual package is fd-find.
