Four things a Hyprland desktop can do that this one was not. Searching from the launcher needed no launcher work at all: Vicinae already models it, so this is a script command with one percent-encoded argument. Make it the fallback command and anything typed that matches nothing else offers to search it. Bangs come free -- they are a property of where the query is sent, not of the launcher -- so !yt reaches YouTube without a line of bang parsing. Suggestions could not be a script command. They need a view that reacts as you type, which is an extension: TypeScript, compiled, querying the same endpoint Firefox's address bar uses. It debounces, and aborts the request in flight on every keystroke -- typing is faster than the network, and an older answer landing after a newer one leaves the list describing a query that is no longer on screen. A bang skips suggestions entirely, because Google has no useful guesses about "!yt". The engine is now written down twice, once in each. The contract pins that they agree, since searching from the fallback and searching from the suggestions reaching different places is the kind of wrong that looks fine. Gestures mirror GNOME: three fingers sideways for workspaces, up for the overview, down to dismiss it. Open and close rather than toggle both ways -- toggling means swiping up from an open overview closes it, which is not what the fingers meant. Hyprland reads gesture registrations at startup so they cannot be a setting, but distance and direction can be, and are. Window swallowing is off by default and a preference like every other misc setting here. A terminal that vanishes when you did not ask for it is confusing rather than broken, which is worse.

# The touchpad gestures, and the window swallowing beside them.
|
|
#
|
|
# Both are behaviour that only exists on hardware this machine may not have, so
|
|
# neither can be checked by running it. What can be pinned is the shape:
|
|
#
|
|
# * Three gestures, mirroring GNOME. Sideways moves workspaces, up opens the
|
|
# overview, down closes it.
|
|
# * Up and down do not both toggle. That is the obvious way to write it and it
|
|
# is wrong: swiping up from an open overview would close it, and swiping
|
|
# down would reopen it, which is the opposite of what the fingers mean.
|
|
# * Swallowing is off by default and driven by a preference. Turning it on for
|
|
# everybody would make terminals appear to vanish on a machine nobody asked.
|
|
# * The swallow regex names only terminals this desktop ships. Anything the
|
|
# pattern matches can swallow, so a broad pattern is windows disappearing in
|
|
# cases nobody intended.
