Why is this project DEAD?

Wayland.

I didn't manage to make it work properly on Wayland, clipboard insertion is really not user friendly. I stop trying to dev it, and i put it as archive.


BAGUETTE

The project is to have a tool easier to use than Compose, for typing accent on linux with qwerty keyboard.

Installation

pip install -r requirement.txt

Wayland Users - Important Setup Required!

If you're using Wayland, you need to add your user to the input group for keyboard capture to work:

sudo usermod -a -G input $USER

Then log out and log back in (or reboot) for the change to take effect.

See SETUP.md for detailed setup instructions and troubleshooting.

Usage

python3 main.py

Type a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) followed by space to open the accent selection window. Press a number (1-5) to select the accent.

Press CTRL+C to quit.

WIP

TODO:

  • Replace french logs (sry, baguette)
  • Fix RuntimeError: wrapped C/C++ object of type AccentWindow has been deleted error
  • Add the possibility to quit the tool without kill every process ✓ Done (CTRL+C)
  • Case insensivity
  • Create settings page
  • Add more accents
  • Create minimized mode
