How to change the prompt? #14

Closed ephemer4l closed 2 years ago

ephemer4l commented 2 years ago

dmenu can be modified to an extent with the file ~/.gnupg/pinentry-dmenu.conf. Are there any plans to support this with pinentry-bemenu? I'm trying to have an empty prompt or at least a shorter one because I can't see myself type anything as everything is condensed into the same line. Is there perhaps something I can pass to BEMENU_OPTS to prevent this?

Not really.

The prompts are all supplied by the caller of pinentry-bemenu (ssh, gpg-agent, etc). So we can not really shorten them here.

As a fix it should be possible to render the prompts in multiple lines. This feature however would first have to be implemented in vanilla bemenu before we can use it here.

There is a feature request for this on Cloudef/bemenu#227.
