Espanso: Because Who Actually Likes Typing Out Their Emails?
# espanso match file # For a complete introduction, visit the official docs at: https://espanso.org/docs/ # You can use this file to define the base matches (aka snippets) # that will be available in every application when using espanso. # Matches are substitution rules: when you type the "trigger" string # it gets replaced by the "replace" string. matches: # signatures - trigger: ";n" replace: "Nikola" - trigger: ";b" replace: "BreΕΎnjak" - trigger: ";li" replace: "https://www.linkedin.com/in/nikola-bre%C5%BEnjak-892b9a24/" - trigger: ";sn" replace: "Kind regards,\nNikola BreΕΎnjak\nhttp://www.nikola-breznjak.com/blog" - trigger: ";web" replace: "http://www.nikola-breznjak.com/" - trigger: ";em" replace: "[email protected]" ## git - trigger: ";ga" replace: "git add ." - trigger: ";gb" replace: "git branch" - trigger: ";gc" replace: "git commit -m " - trigger: ";gd" replace: "git diff --color " - trigger: ";gf" replace: "git fetch --all" - trigger: ";gi" replace: "find . -name '.DS_Store' -type f -delete" - trigger: ";gl" replace: "git log" - trigger: ";gp" replace: "git push origin main" - trigger: ";gs" replace: "git status" - trigger: ";gt" replace: "git remote -v" - trigger: ";gu" replace: "git pull origin main" ## blog - trigger: ";bimp" replace: "https://nikola-breznjak.com/blog/books/want-improve-read-books/" - trigger: ";brem" replace: "https://nikola-breznjak.com/blog/miscellaneou/make-remote-developer/" ## emojis - trigger: ";eew" replace: "β οΈ" - trigger: ";eet" replace: "π€" - trigger: ";eeb" replace: "π°" - trigger: ";eem" replace: "πͺ" - trigger: ";eetm" replace: "β’" - trigger: ";eeh" replace: "β€οΈ" - trigger: ";eeu" replace: "π" - trigger: ";eep" replace: "π" - trigger: ";eef" replace: "π€¦" - trigger: ";ees" replace: "π" - trigger: ";eeg" replace: "π" - trigger: ";eev" replace: "π" - trigger: ";eel" replace: "π" - trigger: ";eec" replace: "π" - trigger: ";eeo" replace: "β " - trigger: ";eer" replace: "π" - trigger: ";eex" replace: "βοΈ" ## replies - trigger: ";ryw" replace: "Youβre welcome π" - trigger: ";rlmk" replace: "Please let me know π" - trigger: ";rbtw" replace: "Btw, how are things on your end?" - trigger: ";rt" replace: "Thank you! π" ## misc - trigger: ";fd" replace: "firebase deploy" - trigger: ";wed" replace: "Happy Wednesday (a dy on which, historically, most people wed on - thus: Wed nes day).

Bad Emacs Defaults
Huh, didn't know abbrev had that limitation (wonder why?). Gave it a go in espanso (https://espanso.org/), and it does work there.

Show HN: I automated 1/2 of my typing
I use a tool called "Espanso" to accomplish something similar at work. It only runs locally, so no weird data scraping issues to worry about. And it's easy to update as things changes becauase everything lives in a simple yml file.
https://espanso.org/
It can do simple text replacement, so I have words, phrases, and sentences I use frequently compressed into a few keyboard clicks. It can also grab what is in your clipboard, so that can be incorporated into responses, which is simple but very handy.
A simple text replacement looks like this in the yaml file:
- Cannot get espanso to work on Debian 12 (stable)

Liberating the MacBook Air 2013 with Linux
FYI: You can enable them in Gnome with Gnome-Tweaks. Apparently a very recent version of Gnome dropped this functionality for reasons that are beyond my understanding (but that's often the case when I look at the decisions that the Gnome devs make).
However, getting the Control -> Command/Super thing to work is much trickier. The best way is to use this: https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail
However when I tried that, I ran into all kinds of weird behaviours all over the OS. Also, it doesn't work with Wayland.

Everything is gone. EVERYTHING
If the likes of https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail/issues/43 are still a going concern then it's not quite as "everywhere" as one would like, and I presume that issue is a fundamental one (i.e. it doesn't sound like XKeySnail gets first refusal on key events).

Emacs + a nice theme + editing features is awesome! (plus some questions about extra configuration)
And I use XKeySnail to have the basic Emacs keys everywhere. I'm sure there are others, but it does enough to keep me happy.
-
Would you still recommend EXWM in 2022?
https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail or the fork of it, I forget it's name, will allow you to do the same as exwm's simulation keys with any window manager.
