@klardotsh @BryanBennett @dnkl If you need a bar for your #Wayland setup I'd definitely recommend #EewBar

Finally quashed a bug that was plaguing my #Hyprland setup. My custom #EewBar with dispatcher scripts worked perfectly until I moved a window into the scratchpad. I initially thought I'd made a mistake converting grep, awk and cut statements to #JQ but nope. Took a little time out break and went back to my code and discovered I was making things way too complicated in my dispatcher script. Sometimes it pays to take a break. #TilingWM #Linux

@Wyatt It's actually been a really good experience so. I started with #Waybar but soon discovered #EewBar which to my delight used far less memory and CPU using the same setup. The only difference was I had to come up with a way to simulate the way my bars work on my #Qtile setup. So after a few days coding I have a reasonably working daily and I'm not saying it's 100℅ perfect but it's mine. I'm not dissing Qtile but I do feel Hyprland is the #TilingWM to watch.

Been playing with #Hyprland and #EewBar for a while now and have it working near perfect for my two screen setup.. It certainly works better than using #WayBar . Should I push this setup with scripts to my #Codeberg repo ? 🤔

Got my scratchpad indicator working on #EewBar along with #Hyprland to show how many items are in the scratchpad. It also uses dunstify aka notify-send when clicked to popup a notification of what apps are in there too with titles.
One thing is bugging me is I could have sworn you could use basic HTML tags like <b> in the notification but it seems not to work it just prints the tag text ?????

@thelinuxcast If you're using #Hyprland then give #EewBar ago it's fantastic. I created a replica of my old #Waybar and it uses less memory and CPU. It's so versatile too.

Haha !!! Finally got my script working and #EewBar configuration working so I have monitor independent workspace widgets that display the focused window for each monitor and the active workspaces too. Plus as a bonus all of the workspaces that are not active too. So an active workspace icon turns white and inactive are grey whilst the current cussed on that screen is white with a yellow underline. I think that calls for a wee drop of red.
#Hyprland

Think I've worked out how I can have a #EewBar on all my monitors that show the active workspace for that screen with #Hyprland .
It's still a work in progress at the moment but I'm quietly confident I'll have it fully operational soon.

There's nothing quite like a missing comma in your css to make you question what the hell is going on. It was only a temporary set back and anyway my #EewBar is coming along very nicely.😂 #Saturday #Coding
