minus-squarecallyral [he/they]linkEnglish1•edit-26 months agoi think it might be possible using wtype with qt or gtk. would only work on wayland, but there’s probably an X equivalent to wtype. i might try to make a prototype when i can, although i am not used to using gui libraries. edit: i probably won’t be making a prototype, i searched stuff up about gtk and qt and it can be pretty complicated
