Today I saw good video on DistroTube channel on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4scYdubKbo. The guy talks about vifm (file manager in vim style). I haven’t tested it in depth but looks good. I will compare it to ranger.
The second thing is vim keybinding in fish shell. I didn’t know fish has this mode since version 2.3.0.
I made a little improvement in my in-memory-storage database using D-Bus instead of pipes. I wrote the simple D-Bus client to control the database like with the echo command and systemd user service.
Read more about in-memory-storage in first post.
For my little project i3-change.py I need lightweight in-memory database. My first idea was to use Redis (I have some experience with it) but it requires some library to control it. I need something more lightweight. I think using linux named pipes is elegant way how communicate with a database. Here is the full source of my lightweight in-memory database: https://github.com/petrposvic/in-memory-storage.
I use i3 window manager. If you switch to another workspace, mouse pointer will move to the center of the active window. It doesn’t matter for my work but sometimes (mainly on workspace where I have web browser) the centered mouse pointer obstructs the view and I’m forced give it away.
Not long ago I heard about Termite terminal emulator. It is inspired by Vim and that’s why I wanted to try it. Sadly Debian hasn’t package so I needed build it from source.
Continue readingAll time when I used i3 window manager I used i3status too. i3status is little bar on bottom of the screen which displays info about things I’m interested in, i.e. free disk space, IP address, volume level, date and time (+ tray icons).

sudo apt install imapfilter
Example configuration in ~/.imapfilter/configu.lua:
