config file does not work

[shriharip]

Hello, Thanks for the efforts and the wonderful program. I am on Mac OS 12 version Monterey .

There are couple of issues in here .

1. I have a config file at ~/.config/warpd/config. however when I try to run warpd the config file is not considered I think, The values set there does not work My config file is simple

   hint_activation_key: leftmeta
   hint_activation_key : j
   speed: 400

   I have also tried putting the leftmeta j in single line and also using hint_mode: leftmeta j This also does not work.

2. when I run warpd --list-options it results in unrecognised option list-options

Thanks

The values set there does not work

Make sure you reload warpd (launchctl kickstart -k gui/$UID/com.warpd.warpd) after updating the file.

Also be aware that:

hint_activation_key : j

will cause j to function as the activation key (activate warpd while it is inactive), which is probably not what you want. If you want <command>+j to activate warpd, then you should set hint_activation_key: M-j, but if you want j to activate hint mode while warpd is already active (i.e in normal mode), then you should set the hint option.

when I run warpd --list-options it results in unrecognised option list-options

Which version are you running? (warpd -v). This works for me as of 2f29c370.

Hello, Thanks very much for the reply. It did help me with some of the things. First the --list-options is now working. Looks like I was on version 1.2 and the upgrade did the trick

Second, I still have issues with the config file.

• I have the config file at ~/.config/warpd/config
• when I run warpd or launchctl kickstart command I am not giving the config file option, since it is located in the place where warpd looks for
• My content of the file is just one line

  speed : 1000

Some weird things happen with this config file when I run the command launchctl kickstart -k ....

• the key j no longer works and I am not able to move down, however 20j or 1j etc will work
• the key 'l' no longer works and same as 'j' when combined with the numeral key it works like 20l
• the speed of the cursor is still the same. It is very slow . When I remove the line from the config file everything works as expected. request you to point out what could be the wrong things here.

Best,

Please ensure you are building from the latest commit ( b2792bfb) (a new release should be out soon). You no longer need to manually restart warpd using kickstart, as I've added hot config reloading (you can just edit the config file). If this still doesn't work, please post the output of cat ~/.config/warpd/config.
