When I open qutebrowser, there's a pop up window complaining about this:
File "/etc/tiles/qutebrowser/config.py", line 135
config.bind('v', 'mode-enter )
Looks like just missing a single quote. But after fixing this I would get similar pop up windows when I open qutebrowser complaining about a few other lines in the same file with <, >, and -. I commented those few lines but still not able to run custom commands so I'm guessing this is the reason why because I never got this message on the master branch. I can try running custom commands on the master branch and let you know if it works there if you'd like. I double checked and I'm on the beta branch with the files and man page installed. wt and wu aren't working either.
I was unaware that there is #!/bin/bash and #!/bin/sh scripts. I was also unaware that there is a root directory. I probably knew this stuff at one point but it's been so long. Have a lot of rust to work out here. Not that I was an expert, but at least knew most of the basics.
Good to know it was a fairly uncomplicated set up for your microphone. Just ordered a yeti with an arm to attach it to so we'll see how it goes. If it gives me similar results to this more expensive mcirophone and sound card I might just stick with it. I might write some udev rules later with this microphone and sound card before I return it to see if it improves this set up.
Thanks, I must have forgot to run that script when I was having trouble with the go file and installing dotool because now numen --version gives me '0.4-0-g4cc5dee0a1fd-dirty'.
Unfortunately, I spoke too soon. I'm getting misspellings, misstypings, and random words in front of what I'm saying again. It seems the issues only passed for a couple hours or so and comes and goes. There's still a much smaller chance of getting random words if I pause for a second or two after saying scribe or transcribe. My system is about four years old, so maybe this is the reason; hard to say.
A few other things I've been meaning to bring up:
tiles-terminal doesn't copy with ctrl+shift+c or paste with ctrl+shift+v but it does work with ctrl+alt+c and ctrl+alt+v. Also alt+s isn't working for search but ctrl+s freezes the terminal. Can you help me diagnose this? Everything else is working fine as far as the short cuts in the man page. But there has been some other weird behavior such as text getting cut off from the screen so you can't read it all.

Hi sublime, I think the qutebrowser problems are just cause you've
edited the tiles source files. You could run `git status` and `git diff`
to see if you changed anything, and run `git reset --hard` to lose any
changes. Alternatively, just git clone and switch branch again.
If `numen --version` has -dirty on the end, that means you've edited the
source files of numen too.
It sounds like you don't have urxvt-perls installed.
It's in my package manager but if not in yours the repo is:
https://github.com/muennich/urxvt-perls
and you only need keyboard-select.
Untested but this should do it for you:
sudo wget 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/muennich/urxvt-perls/master/keyboard-select' -O /usr/lib/urxvt/perl
My first email about bspwmrc was correct but I got it muddled in my reply.
The environment variable specifies the window manager not just the bspwm
config, so you'd need another script like:
#!/bin/sh
exec bspwm -c /path/to/mybspwmrc
and set the environment variable to that.
I've also bumped the width up to 3 if you update beta branch and install.
And I've changed how urxvt copy/pastes so do update.
Try to use "reply all" for follow up emails so it goes to the same thread on
the mailing list. The blue "reply to thread" button at the bottom of the
mailing list thread can do that for you.
Hi John, I reset the tiles repo but was still getting the same error. Using the uninstall script and install script fixed it though. I no longer have the dirty version of numen either after deleting and cloning again.
I used the wget command you provided but still getting the same results. Am I supposed to copy the contents of /tiles/etc/xresources and put them in .Xresources?
Liking the new borders, thank you! Makes it a little easier to see especially on a laptop screen.
I will try to use reply all from now on. The address with a tilde and slash in it wasn't going through. So I've been sending it with periods instead - u.geb.public-inbox@lists.sr.ht. If this one doesn't go through on the same thread, I will ask them to fix it.

Hi sublime, glad you fixed the errors, you always need to reinstall after
changing the source like with `git reset --hard`.
Try:
sudo wget 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/muennich/urxvt-perls/master/keyboard-select' -O /usr/lib/urxvt/perl/keyboard-select
(added keyboard-select to the end of the second argument)
Open a new terminal afterwards.
You don't need to do anything xresources.
Your replying is perfect.
Gotcha, thank you for clarifying the procedure for resetting that repo.
That didn't work for me either. Not sure if it matters but the permissions for keyboard-select are 644.
Glad reply all worked with the periods in the address. I reached out to proton mail anyways. I'll probably get a different email in the near future but it might help the next person.
Deary me, on mine there's lots of files in /usr/lib/urxvt/perl and the added
keyboard-select, and they're all 644.
You could run the command `tiles-terminal` and see if any error messages
show up on the terminal the command is running.
Paste with ctrl+shift+v should work for you now regardless of keyboard-select,
if not, check you're back on the beta branch.
git branch says I'm on beta and git status also says I'm on branch beta and I'm up to date with origin/beta with nothing to commit and the working tree clean. However, copy and paste still isn't working for me with the shift key but it is with the alt key.
tiles-terminal gave the following:
urxvt: perl extension 'keyboard-select' not found in perl library search path

Hmmm...
When you `git log` the top two commits should be:

bspwm: increase border width
If not, you need to `git pull` and reinstall. Note `git status` will
probably always say you're up to date because git only fetches the state
of the remote repo when you tell it to with something like `git fetch` or
`git pull`. In other words, `git status` doesn't connect to the internet.
I'm not sure about keyboard-select.
You could have look at the readme:
https://github.com/muennich/urxvt-perls
and maybe man urxvt.
git log gives me the same output as you.
Will look into git status because I'm not sure what the application is anymore.
I'll have a look at the repo readme again but I don't think I saw anything there. I'll also look at the man page for urxvt (1).
Tried this command:
sudo wget 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/muennich/urxvt-perls/master/keyboard-select' -O ~/.urxvt/ext/keyboard-select
~/.urxvt/ext is for user-only availability. After running this and then tiles-terminal I no longer get any errors. tiles-terminal opens a new terminal window in the same directory and keeps running in the terminal window I used to call the command until I use ctrl+c in the calling window or suck+q in the new terminal window.
Maybe this sheds light on the situation?
So after that some of backwards search is working but not all of the commands. Still not able to copy and paste with shift, only alt. Will look into it more tomorrow and let you know.
All of the commands are working after simply putting keyboard-select in the user specific directory! There was a bit of vi and urxvt rookie confusion last night, partly due to rushing because it was getting late.
Only thing not working is the shift key for copy and paste but alt does work so I don't think it's much to be concerned about for the time being.
Not sure why it works for the user specific directory and not the global one but it doesn't make any difference to me for now.
Thank you so much for your assistance. This stuff is more helpful than I was expecting. :)
