Thanks for that, @manuel :slight_smile:

I started reading your script and immediately thought “this can’t be JS, can it? Or is it fish? Noooo…” And then I saw your shebang. Hush? I feel the need to google now.

25

Oh yeah, probably should’ve put a small disclaimer there.

Hush is basically Lua meets bash. Primary selling points for me are command/capture, error handling, and built-in json (de-)serialization.
However, it might be better to go for go-lang or something else, it’s just the seamless interop with your CLIs that’s hard to get outside of shell languages.

Looking at the docs… I like Hush! I’ve been thinking about either redoing all my zsh and bash scripts I have in either fish or adapt node.js to my shell scripting in one of many ways. I hate bash, I only learned zsh because I had a Mac, and I only write shell scripts for myself, nothing for others. But Hush looks like a nice option, too. Thank you for the info!!

I don’t see the option to update with paru

Indeed, it works :slightly_smiling_face:
Only it is necessary to correct the translation - two identical words are not very good for one phrase…

Good feature! Thx!

Close to tray with update notification sounds good. :wink:

31

Also sounds like a lot of work for @manuel :rofl:

32

I know it may not be easy and tray for each different desktop might be a challenge or not possible? :thinking:

33

I’m considering it in the long term. But no promises… :wink:

TBH @moson, When you announced that you weren’t developing matray anymore, I switched over to EOS almost immediately after reading that post.

@manuel you should consider utilising matray… maybe call it eotray?

Frankly, when @moson gracefully excused himself from Manjaro, politely offering up matray for others to maintain, it sent me down the rabbit hole too … landing happily on EOS, i3, and the nnn terminal.

Couldn’t be happier with the changeover(s).

Exactly, First Jonathon, then (a couple of others), then @moson… it just felt bad

This is the app I’ve been using since the beginning on EndeavourOS. Not disturbing, not intrusive. When I have updated the packages, I close the application. Other Linux distributions also have such a welcome application, but they usually only contain the contact information, the link to the wiki and the documentation. I have never come across so many useful utilities as in the Welcome application developed by @manuel in any other distribution. EndeavorOS Welcome is a real swiss army knife that supports beginners who want to try this great distribution.
