desktop-settings VS dotfiles

One thing about chrome: I see that you don't include a -flags.conf file for chrome, which afaik means that chrome opens with xwayland. Or did you find another way?

It will be in your default autostart items, I just checked the github of the config files for the Sway edition of Manjaro, here's the link: https://github.com/Manjaro-Sway/desktop-settings/blob/sway/community/sway/etc/sway/config.d/99-autostart-applications.conf .

the command being are are in here.

Really nice! Will try and think about adding this to manjaro sway instead of the pango markup mode lines (e.g. https://github.com/Manjaro-Sway/desktop-settings/blob/sway/community/sway/etc/sway/modes/recording).

added a little configuration example for keyboards into our user skel: https://github.com/Manjaro-Sway/desktop-settings/blob/sway/community/sway/etc/skel/.config/sway/config.d/XX-keyboard.conf.example

Here's how to do it - in this example, I'm using my sway-menu python script to generate the menu itself. I'm also moving the menu to be near the cursor:

Maybe try my script sway-runner

As a geriatric user of sway, I don't always remember the keystrokes in the more esoteric corners of my configuration. I find that my script sway-menu helps with the bulk of the uncommon key bindings. But when I drop into a 'mode' (eg "move" mode) I don't always remember all the clever things I programed into it.

I wrote a simple bash script bluetooth-timeout to power-off the linux bluetooth stack after 10m of activity. Maybe this would help you.

Another source for ideas is to read through the configs and scripts written by others. I offer my own here - there are many others around.

sway-menu

Here's a script that uses nwg-wrapper to display a countdown - it would be easy to modify it to display a digital clock.

Imma gonna browse through your stuff to see if there's a scratch to a hitherto unnoticed itch that I can snarf. You might like to do the same with my dotfiles - particularly bin/sway-\, *.config/sway** and .config/waybar.

You might be able to modify my sway-next-empty-workspace script for that. Maybe see if changing swaymsg to i3-msg does the job.

I use myclipman to wrap clipman with wayland/swaywm to prevent passwords being cached.
