My fuzzel shows keybindings for sway

I wrote a tiny script to show sway keybindings, because I often forget them.

part-of-sway-config

# somewhere like `~/.config/sway/config.d/default`
#
# add a following line to the end of sway config
bindsym $mod+k          exec PATH/TO/sway-show-keybindings-fuzzel.sh

sway-show-keybindings-fuzzel.sh

#!/bin/zsh

s=$(rg '^ *bindsym +(.+)$' ~/.config/sway/config.d/default | sed -e 's/^ *bindsym *//' | sed 's/ \+/\t/
' | sed 's/\+/  /g' | awk '{printf("%20s | %s\n", $1, $2)}' FS='\t')

echo ${s} | fuzzel --dmenu

I found Remontoire after writing this.
However, it feels no bad because I love the theming of fuzzel in EndeavourOS Sway Edition.

Nice one, looks cool!

Fuzzel is great. It’s so fast and really flexible, especially since they added mouse support a few months ago. The window switcher script (mod + p by default) and the power menu (mod + shift + e, or click the power icon in the Waybar) use Fuzzel as well, in addition to the cliphist menu and the application launcher.

I’m not sure if you found it already or not, but there is also a built-in cheat sheet written in Yad that you can pull up by clicking on the keyboard icon in the Waybar.

I am surprised that the waybar has a cheet sheet already and It looks so beautiful!

Unfortunately, I 've removed it because I want more space even if few pixels height. At least It might have been better left the clock though…
