Mabox in development...screenshots

I will be posting screenshots of currently-in-development projects and features that may end up in Mabox in the future in this thread.

In the depths of my disk, I have many projects that I have started but never finished. I sometimes forget about some of them and they are waiting until I accidentally encounter files, notes, or scripts related to them.

I might find it harder to forget about them if I post them here.

For now, I’m going back to reading books… :wink:

Colorizer is able to change Papirus Folder colors.
Quickly and without a need to type root passwod.

This one will land in repo soon :wink:

This will probably be the most useful tool for me in the coming weeks/months.

Todo Manager based on Todo.txt format as a dynamic menu (jgmenu) + Conky

No more piles of handwritten sheets of paper strewn across my desk. Ok, maybe there will be a few left :wink:

I put this together in the last couple of evenings, and the result is surprisingly good.

Maybe this tool will be included in the next release of Mabox. As an example of an advanced combination of jgmenu and Conky.

Fixes and improvements for the tools for setting and generating wallpapers in Mabox.
And there’s quite a bit of it :wink:

Fortunately, it’s almost done

I continue my review of Mabox tools…
This time it’s Music & Sound Menu. It’s a basic player based on mpv.

Attached to the keyboard shortcut super + m and also right click on the volume icon in tint2.

An option to pause and resume music has been added.

Coool!!! :technologist:

Its nice to see new stuff, after a while not following the develpment… Added the jgwallpapergenerate -s to my personal wallpaperchanger menu.

Next step is, look into your wallpaper directory setter, to create a list of wallpaper path…

I am now using jgbrowser from mb-tools right, with the following added.

printf "%b\n" " $SET_WDIR,awk -v newdir='${DIRECTORY:-/}' '/^wallpaper_dir=/{\$1=\"wallpaper_dir=\"newdir}1' $CONF_FILE > $CONF_FILE.tmp && mv $CONF_FILE.tmp $CONF_FILE"
printf "%b\n" " $SET_WDIR2,awk -v newdir='${DIRECTORY:-/}' '/^wallpaper_dir2=/{\$1=\"wallpaper_dir2=\"newdir}1' $CONF_FILE2 > $CONF_FILE2.tmp && mv $CONF_FILE2.tmp $CONF_FILE2"

It sets the dir of current navigated dir. Can be any dir. (this is a bit a disadvance of it, maybe.)

It is for 2 monitors.

Will need a look at your new scripts. :slight_smile:
:bird:

The wallpaper options is great.
The todo conky is ready?

If you need basic todo.txt Conky see: Linux with Conky · todotxt/todo.txt-cli Wiki · GitHub

The extended version that I am using is not yet suitable for publication and as I wrote earlier, it may be ready with the next release of Mabox Jaskier - hopefully by the end of this year.

It’s great for planning and helps me a lot with Mabox development. But there’s a long way to go between “it works for me” and being ready to publish to a wider audience.

Ok. I wait your job, It will surely be excellent.

In the meantime, I highly recommend trying out the official version not mine.

Excelente, ya lo estoy probando (aunque me cuesta bastante el idioma inglés).

Excellent, I’m already trying it (although it costs me a lot in the English language).
:ok_hand:

Acá encontré una utilidad muy buena: una combinación de todo.txt y rofi
La agregué al menú contextual de tu conky.

Here I found a very good utility: a combination of todo.txt and rofi.
I added it to your conky’s context menu.
