I made a program similar to Rofimoji called Emoji Cherry Pick. It has a bit more to it, like a history and favorites, alternative menu selectors to Rofi like fzf in the terminal and different output methods like stdout and clipboard and notification.
you can make different themes for different scripts, like making the power menu script narrower or making it appear in a corner, it's not necessary but it's cool
This has convinced me to replace dmenu. I've always used dmenu as it comes out of the box with i3wm. But the configuration rofi provides seems more flexible
Thank you! This was very good. I'm not a teenager, I def not pretend to be - but still use emojis like a true boomer - both for work and private. So rofi-emoji was actually very handy. Calc I already had. A small note for fellow Arch Linux'ers though. It won't actually pull all it's dependencies. I had to go on and install the optional dependencies too, to make it work on my ALG box.
Indeed. The adapter script will look for any of the optional dependencies and pick the first one that is found, by default. The adapter script is pluggable so one could even do something completely different by replacing the script, or add support for some other clipboard manager not officially supported out of the box.
The discovery of Archcraft made me dig into the rofi workflow, that's one of the benefit of distro hopping even if its just for testing. We get to know the cool tools developers found or preferred over more mainstream solutions. Discovering the powerful alternatives for audacity and vlc was done that way.
"if you are someone who plays a teenager on the internet" ... uhm, what? why?? well i lately figured how to set up rofi to switch to the respective pywal colors that is taken from my wallpaper, the way it is described on their page didn't work for me so i had to tinker arround on my own, but now i can press a key to change my wallpaper and all accent colors of my window manager, terminals and now also rofi change as well and because i'm a great fan of transparency ( you know, if i have a nice wallpaper i happen to wanna see it) that was indeed important to achieve the shutdown script i have baked into a script that i did steal a long time ago from somewhere i have forgotten and i messed it up so much over time, but it usually works even without systemd, or lets say i know how to adjust it to make it work so yes, rofi is absolutely one of the most important apps that i use all the time - it's an amazing app, i totally agree with you on that
Author of rofi-emoji here. Hit me up if you have any questions about it!
Thanks for the shoutout, @The Linux Cast!

Do you have this script posted anywhere?
This is the best channel for just going a bit beyond the standard functionalities!

Did you read my mind? Three days ago I switched to qtile (first wm) and today to rofi. Thanks for this channel, fellow historian Linux enthusiast.

3:45: instead of rofi you can use xfce4-clipman for clipboard, also works really well
That's the one I use with awesomewm, works flawlessly.

1:04 "someone who just plays a teenager on the internet", my brother in christ that doesn't sound so good
Great work again Matt, I also rely a lot in Rofi with its scripts.

Love these videos. Keep them coming.
I use rofi power menu on Void i just had to make an adjustment to the code and have elogind installed.

I think the rofi power menu thing should work on OpenRC if you modify it and replace `systemctl` with `loginctl`
Thank you, I will be looking into this.
Watched your i3 scripting vid from the other day and modified your alchanger / i3 rice changer to change my qtile rice :)
Awesome!
looks like rofi-MPC won't install from the AUR right now. Any other way to get that?
Follow these directions here. github.com/Marco98/rofi-mpc#deployment (it's just two lines)
I miss a script to switch between my pc's audio devices
Are these from separate packages or does this all come with rofi?
They are separate
where did you get that linux poster ?
Amazon.
rofi kinda reminded me of a little program called emacs. you should give it a try
Except Rofi is good.... burn.
@@TheLinuxCast :>
@@TheLinuxCast you spelt emacs wrong there it's emacs not rofi lol...... burn
@@TrueWordsOfEternity A lot of arson down here
Rofi is so awesome! 😀 It will do almost anything. I still use Dmenu for the little things... 😛
Aren't all teenagers at heart? ❤ 😀
LLAP 🖖
i can type 😁😚😏 on the phone, but I can't see them on my linux pc 😀
you'll need to install noto-font-emoji to see them on Linux.
Chad me already made my own scripts for it
nah I would use dmenu
actually no I use fzf anyway
typo in the title
Someone who plays a teenager... that's a level of cringe I didn't expect.
rofis god like
