lynorian | what does the type=action thing in the desktop spec mean | 03:11 |

guiverc | task34/41: (smart package removal); where would I go to look for how it's done in ubiquity? or is grabbing the `apt install source` the best approach? | 06:54 |
BlakeCarrington[ | Hi. Running lxqt atm.but cannot get trojita email client to connect to a hotmail account i use. The imap and smtp settings are correct but my folders wont download | 13:13 |
kc2bez | BlakeCarrington[: This question is probably better for the support channel. | 13:32 |

wxl | @lynorian: toot away my friend :) | 19:03 |
lynorian | I have a need to know what the desktop spec is for current directory | 19:05 |
* kc2bez forwarded your forum post to the Telegram announcement channel wxl | 19:07 | |
wxl | danke | 19:08 |
wxl | could you provide some context @lynorian ? | 19:11 |
lynorian | trying to actually provide an example for custom actions for open in terminal | 19:12 |
lynorian | trying qterminal -w to open that file path but need the current directory | 19:12 |
wxl | these are qterminal custom actions? | 19:13 |
lynorian | no in pcmanfm-qt as an exmpale somewhat different than the manjaro ones | 19:13 |
wxl | ah ok | 19:14 |
wxl | so here's the section on actions https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html#extra-actions | 19:14 |
wxl | the section on the exec key is relevant as it tells you about all the variables https://specifications.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html#exec-variables | 19:15 |
lynorian | I actually don't see one there unfortanetly | 19:16 |
wxl | if you need to act only on a current directory, make sure to set MimeTypes=inode/directory; | 19:16 |
wxl | and then you could use %f | 19:16 |
lynorian | ok | 19:16 |
wxl | i wish there was more consistency between terminals | 19:17 |
wxl | `x-terminal-emulator -e 'cd %f'` or something of the sort might be more portable | 19:18 |
wxl | OOOOOH an expandable terminal emulator with tons of features that does not require a UI toolkit. it uses OpenGL, leaving all rendering to the GPU, so less footprint on the overall system. it's got a cute logo, too. https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/ | 19:35 |
wxl | c + python | 19:35 |
wxl | latest commit 5 hours ago | 19:35 |
lynorian | wxl not sure I would want that in a vm though | 19:36 |
wxl | right right | 19:36 |
lubot | <kc2bez> I know a guy that raves about kitty. I haven't tried it myself yet. | 19:37 |
wxl | looks pretty rad given the feature list. i'm not one to change terminals but this is tempting | 19:37 |
lubot | <kc2bez> Sounds cool. I may have to give it a go. | 19:38 |
lynorian | I mean it is cool like how I like xfs but understand a good reason for it not being default is not able to be shrunk. | 19:38 |
wxl | if and when zfs becomes rock solid, i'm all for making it default :) | 19:39 |
lubot | <UniversalSuperBox> x!=z | 19:39 |
wxl | i am aware, incidentially | 19:40 |

lubot | <SamuelBanya> I got in touch with the Ubuntu dev who helps with the ISO tester for Ubuntu and I'll email him tonight to ask how we can automate iso testing. Once I figure out how to deploy that app, I'll host it on my Digital Ocean droplet via a cronjob daily and I'll figure out how to get it to send out related reports | 22:19 |
lubot | <SamuelBanya> *via LinkedIn. He gave me his email address thankfully as well so I'll keep in touch with him. | 22:19 |
wxl | neat | 22:22 |
lubot | <tsimonq2> @SamuelBanya [I got in touch with the Ubuntu dev who helps with the ISO tester for Ubuntu and …], jibel? | 22:22 |
lubot | <SamuelBanya> Joshua Powers | 22:23 |
lubot | <tsimonq2> ohhhh | 22:23 |
lubot | <tsimonq2> yeah I know him | 22:23 |
lubot | <SamuelBanya> I also tried emailing the following mailing list but was told I was emailing the wrong one to get help with porting redshift gir-devel-list@gnome.org | 22:24 |
lubot | <SamuelBanya> I'll try emailing the qt one instead of the gtk one as well | 22:24 |
lubot | <tsimonq2> ah | 22:25 |
wxl | progress is good | 22:25 |
lubot | <tsimonq2> @SamuelBanya [I got in touch with the Ubuntu dev who helps with the ISO tester for Ubuntu and …], We have a Jenkins instance you can use :) | 22:26 |
lubot | <SamuelBanya> Ok whatever works in that case | 22:36 |
