Yesterday I heard of https://quickshell.outfoxxed.me/ but have never tried it myself. They have some pretty decent examples of widgets on their homepage. I think they have their own little langauge called QML which appears to be turing-complete.

Maybe that's what you're missing.

I played with GTK's transitions a bit, but they don't seem to support scaling-related transitions, so I don't think you'll be able to do that.

I was able to make a simple one: https://files.catbox.moe/okh3zc.mp4

Waybar uses GTK stylesheets for the theming. In theory, GTK CSS does have support for transitions and animations, which could be used in your case. But I'd say it's a hard sell still. That aside I've never tried them in GTK, so I wouldn't know if they even work in practice or how far.

I think you have a shot at this with eww instead. But it's harder to work with and you'll need to make somewhat complex scripts I'd imagine.

Alright. I pushed the changes to remote.

NOTE: Waybar has a built-in module for showing temperature, it's just that I couldn't make it work for me and that's why I have a custom module to show CPU temperature. I recommend that you try the built-in one first (since it might work on your machine) for more minimal setup.

I'm almost there, I think. I'll let you know in an hour or two.

Eventually I'm going to push it my dotfiles Git repository, but right now I'm still figuring out the theming so it's not up yet.

I'm using Waybar for the system bar. It should work on most Wayland compositors.

If anybody is curious, it's a real preprocessor for Python called PyGyat.

Vert guarantees a single file/directory when you extract something with it. If there are more than 1 file in the archive it will nest them in a directory. I have no plans to add any flags or anything to make it extract without nesting either.

So it detects if there's a single folder inside the zip containing all the files or all the files directly inside the zip?

Yes. It also has l (lowercase L) subcommand which lists the contents of the archives to the terminal (stdout).

UPDATE: Implemented VERT_USE_EXTERNAL_TOOLS environment variable. See #Configuration.

I had passed the filter parameter as "data", which should help prevent most issues with it but yes I agree that it would've been better to use external tools to do the heavy-lifting. I avoided them to make the program cross-platform and easier to setup (you currently can just run a simple pip command to install it). I may introduce them as optional backends later with a warning on the default ones but for now I'm postponing it.
