A modi to use with rofi. It presents a list of named snippets (keys) and simulate a user keyboard input of a corresponding value. Key/value pairs are stored in a mysnippets config file.

• xdotool

1. Clone the repo.

2. Modify the snippets.sh file to point the SNIPFILE variable to the actual location of the mysnippet file on your computer.

3. Add your own snippets.

4. Start rofi as follows:

   rofi -show snip -modi snip:/home/raph/Code/langageBash/rofi-modi-snippets/snippets.sh

(it can be combined with other modis, separated by commas)

Snippets are strings of text, which are written with xdotool in the window with focus. Snippets starting by cmd are passed through eval and the written string is the result of the evaluation. See the cmddate and cmdepoch examples.

• You may change the separator used in the mysnippet config file.
• It differs from rofi-snippet in that rofi-snippet is a standalone Python script calling rofi. rofi-modi-snippet is intended to be a modi for rofi, combined with others (ssh, run, window, etc.)
