## nlay |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`nlay` (*NnnpLAY*) is a customizable media type or action handler |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Usage |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`nlay` is not used by `nnn` now. However, the bash script can be used to run desktop search utility or screensaver: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nlay file type |
|
|
|
file: absolute path to file ("" for an action) |
|
|
|
type: type of media or action |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Default apps |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* gnome-search-tool, catfish - file search |
|
|
|
* vlock - terminal screensaver (alternatives - cmatrix, termsaver) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Perks |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- simple to modify (extensive in-file notes, comments and indicative code) |
|
|
|
- handle files by category (e.g. plaintext, search, screensaver) |
|
|
|
- support for multiple apps by order of preference |
|
|
|
- run app in the foreground or silently detached in the background |
|
|
|
- optionally add app arguments |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Tips to modify |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- set `app=` in any category to change the player |
|
|
|
- set `opts=` to use app options |
|
|
|
- toggle `bg=` to enable or disable running app silently (`stdout` and `stderr` redirected to `/dev/null`) in background. E.g., vim (CLI) should be verbose and in the foreground while Sublime Text (GUI) can be started silently in the background. |
|
|
|
- enable the commented out code under `ENABLE_FILE_TYPE_HANDLING` to handle specific file extensions e.g. use a different app than the one used for the category. |
