suggpicker

A bar to complement your virtual keyboard

Like if bemenu and fbp had a baby.

This is derived from wvkbd.

Interface

Each line of input is treated as TSV.

Install

You'll need the following developer packages

  • pangocairo
  • wayland-client
  • xkbcommon

Make any customizations you would like in config.h and run make

Usage

The keyboard can be hidden by sending it a SIGUSR1 signal and shown again by sending it SIGUSR2. This saves some start up time and may be appropriate in some low-resource environments.

Contribute
