Hey, I know the guy who wrote the script, he is great.

I have never tried it. But debian based + xfce, so you know what to expect.

This is a long list of terminal goodies: https://github.com/toolleeo/cli-apps/

Also, check the games that I have written, in the same spirit as this one:

I have no idea. On an old potato laptop I tried it on it works ok, if I rush the keys, it is flickering a little.

christos OP , 2 months ago

Sure, it is a Potatomatic 4000, 2nd edition. No, not Alacrity. Thx though.

christos , 2 months ago

Someone should come up with a new distro with the name potatOS, just for cases like this .

christos OP , 2 months ago

I am still using the arrow keys, I must be an idiot , too. If this script helps you with the vim movements, you can check out for the same reason two or three scripts of mine, in the same repo: tui-mines, mneme,tui-sudoku.

De gustibus et coloribus… I like bash.

It works for me.

About .local/bin/ not existing, or not being in the $PATH, that is why I also propose running the script locally, from the same directory with ./mneme.sh

Thanks, I am glad you like it.

christos OP , 2 months ago

I went on and added an if statement and a message to install.sh, just for the issue you mentioned…

christos , 2 months ago

Please return to windows.

christos OP , 2 months ago

It is not impossible. Are you up to modify 4 lines of code?

christos OP , 2 months ago

Wait up, I am preparing one command for you, you run it, and you use your keys as you wish. Just don’ put caps lock!

christos OP , 2 months ago

Here is the solution just for you:

• get to the tui-mines/ directory
• open a terminal there
• run this command sed -i ‘s/k|A/w|A/;s/h|D/a|D/;s/j|B/s|B/;s/l|C/d|C/’ tui-mines.sh

Run the script ./tui-mines.sh

You can now play using lower case awsd.

christos OP , 2 months ago

Let me know if it works.

christos OP , 2 months ago

And to see the correct cheatsheet as well: sed -i ‘s/hjkl/awsd/’ tui-mines.sh

christos OP , 2 months ago

Ευχαριστω!

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Since many youngsters who unlike me, a senior citizen, live on the edge and hate vim keys or arrow keys, have requested an alternative navigation keys set up, I have just implemented a configuration option that satisfies just that.

By editing the config file (either within the application or just editing ~/.config/tui-mines/tui-mines.config, and changing the NAVIGATION_KEYS value from vim+arrows (default) to aswd+arrows, the user can use the aswd keys to navigate in the game grid, just as requested.

No other commands or hacks are needed.

Arrow keys remain hardcoded, because they remind me of my youth, as an archer, during the Peloponnesian War

christos OP , 2 months ago

Welp, also solves the ‘Which distro to use?’ issue.

christos OP , 3 months ago

The main difference is that the keybindings have nothing to do with the vim keybindings. In this script, these are totally configurable, and the default ones are quite easy and expected, ctrl-c for copying, ctrl-v for pasting, ctrl-x for cutting, ctrl-r for renaming, etc. And the use of fuzzy finder fzf.

christos OP , 3 months ago

Thx, I think so, too!

christos OP , 3 months ago

Well, there is just one themes.txt file, created inside .config/basht/ directory. There is no particular reason why it should not be a .txt. Would you suggest another solution?

christos OP , 3 months ago

Well, after a quick search, from that source, I found that :

…A .theme file is a .ini text file that is divided into sections, which specify visual elements that appear on a Windows desktop. Section names are wrapped in brackets ([]) in the .ini file.

I believe that the themes.txt file has not much to do with the above, furthermore, confusion between the two does not sound a good idea. What is more, one can say that file names such as themes.txt and current_theme.txt are quite descriptive and leave no doubts about their function. However, I think I understand your point of view. Perhaps I would consider renaming these in the future.

christos OP , 3 months ago

There is, if you like fzf, or if you are not comfortable with vim keybindings. Still, Ranger is awesome.

christos OP , 3 months ago

Fear not, there are no scary commands in this script.

This is a bash script I wrote:

As far as searches go:

• s option: Search using a keyword/phrase
• h option: Watch history
• j option: Search history

If I understand correctly, in your case: let’s say you search for a term , i.e. vanillaOS. You will be able to select from a list of videos, with a preview image and other data ( data, views, channel etc). If on a later date you wish to search again for this term, by selecting the j option, you can easily repeat the same search, with any new videos available included.

Thanks, any feedback would be welcome!

christos OP , 6 months ago

Thank you, I am glad you like it. I have been trying to improve it, adding functionalities, improving the selection mechanism with cursor and scrolling etc.

christos OP , 6 months ago

Hey let me know how it goes, any feedback is welcome!

Somehow things seem similar (perhaps better) in Greece:

Oh my bad, I misunderstood the concept of percentage.

christos , 7 months ago

Percentage, it’s percentage that is recorded, percentage.

This may come as a shock as well, but here’s the same script, in python: radion.py
