What is this

This repository contains various tools written in compiled languages which are used in my dotfiles for both system and user setup.

micro-locker

This tool subscribes systemd DBUS signals and runs arbitrary commands on the following events:

  • Lock (indicates that a locker must be started)
  • Unlock (indicates that a session is unlocked and the locker can be killed)
  • Suspend
  • Resume

The commands are set via env variables like this:

ON_LOCK="i3lock \
ON_SUSPEND="i3lock" \
ON_UNLOCK="killall i3lock" \
    micro-locker

udev-monitor

When a new USB keyboard is connected, xorg resets the repeat rate. Because it's a new keyboard. I want my keyboard settings to be always applied, even to new hardware. To do so a user process subscribes to udev USB events and on any change re-executes input device configuration.

brie-bin

Brie is a CLI launcher for wine, which uses a YAML manifest to set up the environment, Wine prefix and launch the given Windows executable with the defined env, preparation command, and winetricks. This repository contains a PKGBUILD which downloads the pre-compiled binary from Github releases.
