impero

impero is a graphical command executor, intended to be used via a keyboard shortcut. Available commands are displayed and optionally filtered with the contents of a text field. When one is selected using Tab/Shift-Tab + Enter, it is executed and the program exits.

Available commands are read from files, separated by new-line characters. The $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/impero/commands.txt (or equivalent for the platform) is read, unless the --defaults no argument is specified. An additional file can be specified with --from-file path/to/file.

$ # Reads commands from `$XDG_CONFIG_DIR/impero/commands.txt`.
$ impero
$ # Reads commands from a file
$ impero --from-file path/to/file

demo

building

Both autotools and cmake builds are supported. impero uses Qt for the graphical use interface. The only dependencies are Qt's Core and Wigets modules (see configure.ac and CMakeLists.txt).

$ # autotols build
$ ./configure && make
$ # cmake build
$ cmake -B . && make
