#autokey — Public Fediverse posts

#Espanso doesn't work correctly with the Flatpack version of KDE Kate text editor on Cinnamon Mint using X1 (at least for me). If I have a trigger of 'ofc' it should expand that to 'of course'. Except it's more likely to produce 'of cuor se' or 'ofc oseur'.

#AutoKey (different from AutoHotKey) does the same if I choose "keyboard" as the entry method, but it has other methods to add text: three clipboard ones (Ctrl+V, Ctrl+Shift+V, Shift+Insert), plus Mouse Selection (which does nothing).

Downside is that every text expansion I do then ends up cluttering the clipboard history utility I use, #CopyQ. So I had to define some hotkeys in that to toggle clipboard storing, and mostly run with CopyQ inactive until I needed it.

And it's frankly a pain to add expansions to AutoKey.
As an example:

Ctrl+N to start a new entry
type in "everyone" as its name
click in the expansion box (can't even tab to it)
Backspace out "Enter phrase contents"
type in "everyone" as its contents
Mouse down to Paste Using
Select "Shift+Insert"
Mouse down more to Abbreviations: Set
Click "Add" in the popup
type "e1" and hit Enter
Click "Match phrase case to typed abbreviation"
Click "OK"
Ctrl+S to save entry

That's thirteen steps to add an entry, compare to editing a single text file in Espanso and adding

trigger: "e1"
replace: "everyone"

Though that basic entry would always produce "everyone" and not "Everyone" when I type "E1" instead of "e1".

AutoKey does have text files, but it's one per entry, which is not remotely as convenient.

@Zenie @jbaty Giving up #TextExpander was the final, biggest obstacle to transitioning to Linux from MacOS eight or ten years ago. #AutoKey did the job under X, mostly, and #Espanso works sometimes under Wayland but only after a sojourn in config hell. But neither has ever been reliable. It must be a difficult problem space because it just doesn't ever work.

The vast majority of my snippets are for composing email, so I moved them to #yasnippet after I loved to #mu4e. And #Emacs has never let me down.

But that leaves tons of stuff in the browser where one is left just to muddle through.

TRIUMPH! The LAST and FINAL thing holding me back from completely moving to #Wayland was replacing #AutoKey for text expansion.

#espanso appears to replace all the functionality (at least that I use, although the scripting is not via Python). Happy!

NOTE! DEBIAN USERS! If you follow the instructions on the installation page, you get an old release that has dependency issues. Download the LATEST RELEASE 2.2.3 of the Wayland .deb

https://github.com/espanso/espanso/releases/tag/v2.2.3

can someone tell me, how to get #AutoKey (installed appstream://autokey-gtk.desktop) from Discover working in all windows in #Neon #KDE?

It works in Google Chrome, but not in #Thunderbird (which would be 95% of my usage) or Kate.

The PC is now running #Garuda #Linux, which means it's still running #ArchLinux. However, some oddities are annoying. #luakit doesn't want to learn other search engines, but what's particularly annoying is that abbreviations, or letter shortcuts, can no longer be defined with #autokey. When I click "OK" in the corresponding dialog window, nothing happens. Hotkeys, however, can be configured. I don't get it. #Arch

Ich nutze dafür, ebenfalls nach meinem Umstieg von Windows, seit Jahren #Autokey. Meines Wissen in allen Distributionen erhältlich. Es braucht als Basis autokey-common und dann je nach System autokey-qt oder autokey-gtk (nicht beides, sondern nur eins davon).
