This repository contains scripts for foot.

foot-command

This script implements a command palette for Foot. It allows you to interactively pick a command defined in your foot.ini keybindings, and simulate its corresponding keypress with wtype. Here's how it works:

1. Parses keybindings from the [key-bindings] section of foot.ini.
2. Pipes the list of commands to a picker and waits for a selection.
3. Sends the mapped keypress to to the focused window using wtype.

Dependencies

• wtype.
• A dmenu-compatible picker (e.g. fuzzel).

Usage

foot-command.py [-c PATH_TO_CONFIG] [-p PICKER_COMMAND]

I recommend binding this to a key in your window manager. You need to invoke the command when Foot is the focused window.

Options

• -c, --config: Path to your foot.ini file. Defaults to $HOME/.config/foot/foot.ini.
• -p, --picker: Picker to use (must support dmenu style input). Defaults to fuzzel --dmenu --placeholder=Select a command:.
