In all seriousness I like to keep the bookmarks grouped and easily readable so I open the file in vis, insert the bookmark wherever, and use the operator to align the comments/tags. But that's not really necessary.

They can be copied to the clipboard from there and pasted into st. Anything else I just type out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Thanks for your feedbacks, however, the script bm is the simplification/attempted improvement of of bmks which I got from some unknown source (apologies if you are the uncredited author). -- CAEE B377 FC82 BAF9 102C D22F C5CE D003 1AA8 E281 Spenser Truexhttps://equwal.com signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Admittedly my script doesn't do these things at the moment. -- CAEE B377 FC82 BAF9 102C D22F C5CE D003 1AA8 E281 Spenser Truexhttps://equwal.com signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Re: [dev] sbm dmenu bookmarker
Hi, I think this script is way too complicated for what it does. I do the following: `grep -v -e '#' -e '^$' $BOOKMARKS | dmenu -i -l 20 | cut -f 1 -d ' '` Then I pipe it to the clipboard or a plumber script depending on what I want to do with it (bound to a keybind in dwm). To add bookmarks I either use a text editor or just echo: `echo "https://nsa.gov file sharing, hosting provider" >> $BOOKMARKS` - Randy On Sun, Jul 30, 2023 at 3:25 PM Spenser Truex wrote: > > A friend of mine was impressed with how quickly I was spamming the most > based and redpilled links from this script and wanted me to publish it. > > screenhots etc. > https://equwal.com/posts/sbm > the "code" > https://github.com/equwal/sbm > > It's still rough around the edges, I'd like to be able to have some > input validation (no duplicate links) and plumbing options (browse > where? copy to what?). > > As it stands, it just copies to clipboard which is probably good enough. > -- > CAEE B377 FC82 BAF9 102C D22F C5CE D003 1AA8 E281 > Spenser Truexhttps://equwal.com

I think is nice to copy to primary. I saw that you use bash in the shebang, but you actually don't use any bash feature. Did you consider to make it POSIX compliant? Regards,

Best marketing for a bookmark program ever. > the "code" > https://github.com/equwal/sbm You should really get rid of the useless use of cats (it's common enough mistake that it even has an abbreviation - UUOC [0]). Most unix commands accept a file, so instead of `cat file | sort` you can just do `sort file`. And in cases where the command doesn't accept a file, you can use shell redirection, e.g `https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_(Unix)#Useless_use_of_cat - NRK

A friend of mine was impressed with how quickly I was spamming the most based and redpilled links from this script and wanted me to publish it. screenhots etc. https://equwal.com/posts/sbm the "code" https://github.com/equwal/sbm It's still rough around the edges, I'd like to be able to have some input validation (no duplicate links) and plumbing options (browse where? copy to what?).
