I've summarized my settings and customization of my desktop using #GNOME48 (from #Debian13 #Trixie) on https://karl-voit.at/Gnome-Setup/
Including:
- my choice of #GNOME Extensions
- custom scripts in "Files" (#Nautilus) incl. keyboard shortcuts
- most settings can be easily set by gseetings in your shell without requiring Settings or Tweaks UI
- list of current bugs relevant to me
TRIUMPH! The LAST and FINAL thing holding me back from completely moving to #Wayland was replacing #AutoKey for text expansion.
#espanso appears to replace all the functionality (at least that I use, although the scripting is not via Python). Happy!
NOTE! DEBIAN USERS! If you follow the instructions on the installation page, you get an old release that has dependency issues. Download the LATEST RELEASE 2.2.3 of the Wayland .deb
https://github.com/espanso/espanso/releases/tag/v2.2.3
and then follow the installation instructions:
can someone tell me, how to get #AutoKey (installed appstream://autokey-gtk.desktop) from Discover working in all windows in #Neon #KDE?
It works in Google Chrome, but not in #Thunderbird (which would be 95% of my usage) or Kate.
Well, I could solve the #autokey problem.
Nun gut, das Problem bei #autokey konnte ich lösen.
The PC is now running #Garuda #Linux, which means it's still running #ArchLinux. However, some oddities are annoying. #luakit doesn't want to learn other search engines, but what's particularly annoying is that abbreviations, or letter shortcuts, can no longer be defined with #autokey. When I click "OK" in the corresponding dialog window, nothing happens. Hotkeys, however, can be configured. I don't get it. #Arch
Der PC läuft nun mit #Garuda #Linux, also weiterhin mit #ArchLinux. Einige Merkwürdigkeiten nerven jedoch. #luakit will keine anderen Suchmaschinen lernen, aber besonders übel ist, dass sich bei #autokey keine Abbreviations, also Buchstabenkürzel, mehr definieren lassen. Beim Klick auf "OK" im zugehörigen Dialogfenster passiert einfach nichts. Hotkeys hingegen lassen sich einstellen. Kapiere ich nicht. #Arch
@bricabrac
Ich nutze dafür, ebenfalls nach meinem Umstieg von Windows, seit Jahren #Autokey. Meines Wissen in allen Distributionen erhältlich. Es braucht als Basis autokey-common und dann je nach System autokey-qt oder autokey-gtk (nicht beides, sondern nur eins davon).

The advantages of #Espanso are its cross-platform ability and, like #AutoHotKey, but unlike #Texpander and #Autokey, it doesn't need a separate file for each trigger, so you can have thousands!

#Texpander is a simple text expander for #Linux. It is sort of like #Autokey, except it works off of text files that you put in your ~/.texpander directory. Texpander is a #bash script that uses #xclip, #xdotool, and #zenity to let you type an abbreviation for something and it expands to whatever you have in the matching text file.

I've occasionally made use of #AutoKey, but find #Espanso easier to configure and, like #AutoHotKey, it is better for large numbers of expansions.
There are probably other #Android utilities, but a user on Discord (https://discord.com/channels/884163483409731584/1013915939156275210/1246927287488741416) is working on mobile apps which can use Espanso's YAML files.

☝️ Caveat: It only supports legacy #AHK 1.1 syntax and does not aim for 100% feature parity/compatibility, but should enable you to use most of your #hotkeys and #hotstrings #crossplattform! (Sync on your own).

Text Expander - Was ist das?
Mit kurzen Phrasen und Hotkeys die tägliche Arbeit erleichtern. Ein Erfahrungsbericht.

podcasts feeds in TB has been great for my setup
filter rules (?, can't remember exact name) also great to set alerts for some pods or keywords
the 3-4-5 steps to click and download the file can be macro'ed if needed with something like https://alternativeto.net/software/autokey-py3/about/
ICH BEGREIFE DAS NICHT … verdammt noch mal 😡
#Autokey fügt über den Shortcut Alt+Shift+D in jedem Programm das Datum ein. Funktionierte wunderbar, bis ich von #LinuxMint 20.1 auf 20.2 gewechselt bin. Mal wird er nun gar nicht ausgeführt, mal ist da (D18.08.2021) das große D am Anfang. Es ist zum Heulen 😤 Ich habe überhaupt keine Vorstellung, was dafür verantwortlich sein könnte. Solche nicht nachvollziehbaren Veränderungen sind nicht nur lästig, sie nerven kolossal 🤬
