ppkui_bar is a native wayland client for providing a bottom touch bar.
ppkui_bar --config bar.toml- Using a custom font generated by glyphter.
- Wayland layer-shell protocol support.
- Configuration file.
- Touch and pointer event handling.
- Command execution.
Several features have not yet been implemented:
- Hardware acceleration, font hinting.
- Using a virtual keyboard protocol to emulate keystrokes instead of command execution (may be a bit faster and efficient).
- Multitouch handling?
- Packaging for some distros.
Overall it is quite rough around the edges at this point, although it is usable.
ppkui_menu is a dmenu-like native wayland application launcher.
