However, the bash script can be used to run desktop search utility or screensaver: - - nlay file type - file: absolute path to file ("" for an action) - type: type of media or action - -### Default apps - -* gnome-search-tool, catfish - file search -* vlock - terminal screensaver (alternatives - cmatrix, termsaver) - -### Perks - -- simple to modify (extensive in-file notes, comments and indicative code) -- handle files by category (e.g. plaintext, search, screensaver) -- support for multiple apps by order of preference -- run app in the foreground or silently detached in the background -- optionally add app arguments - -### Tips to modify - -- set `app=` in any category to change the player -- set `opts=` to use app options -- toggle `bg=` to enable or disable running app silently (`stdout` and `stderr` redirected to `/dev/null`) in background. E.g., vim (CLI) should be verbose and in the foreground while Sublime Text (GUI) can be started silently in the background. -- enable the commented out code under `ENABLE_FILE_TYPE_HANDLING` to handle specific file extensions e.g. use a different app than the one used for the category. |
