# This script will allow you to easily use https://runeapps.org/clue on Linux. Ideally you would use
# the alt1 toolkit directly, but it's very much windows only and no support for anything else seems planned.
# the actual apps however are plain webapps, the only thing the 'toolkit' is really doing is recording the screen
# and passing it directly to those webapps. This script will partly do the same by taking a screenshot upon execution
# and passing it to the clue webapp
#
# This very much depends on xdotool
# We use xfce4-screenshooter to take screenshots, mostly because that's just what I have installed
# as my DE and it seemed to work right away. It should be fairly straight forward to replace this
# with whatever screenshot tool your DE uses. Just make sure to screenshot the current window and
# to copy it to the clipboard rather than saving it as a file or whatever.
# second of all, google-chrome is hardcoded. This is for 2 reasons, runeapps doesn't seem to support
# firefox, could be one of my extensions, could be the assumption that it runs in chromium/electron/whatever
# and second of all, as this will just open a new tab every single time I didn't feel like poluting my
# firefox tab session and possibly get annoyed with it opening in the wrong window once in a while
# that just using google-chrome purely for this seemed like an easier solution
# feel free to swap it out for any other browser, although with non chromium based browsers results may vary
# this tool might however fail if google-chrome was not yet previously running
# and it might once in a while fail at pasting your screenshot into the browser, this could happen due to
# the new tab not being fully loaded yet by the time we 'press' ctrl+v. Ideally I would just somehow wait
# for the page to load, but I didn't feel like figuring this out and a 1 second sleep just seemed to work.
# feel free to adjust this to your needs I guess.
