desktop-tools ============= :compact-option: 'desktop-tools' is a collection of tools to run my desktop that might be useful to other people as well: - 'dwmstatus' does literally everything my dwm doesn't but I'd like it to. It includes PulseAudio volume management and hand-written NUT and MPD clients, all in the name of liberation from GPL-licensed software of course. - 'brightness' allows me to change the brightness of w/e display device I have. - 'fancontrol-ng' is a clone of fancontrol that can handle errors on resume from suspend instead of setting fans to maximum speed and quitting; in general it doesn't handle everything the original does - 'shellify' is a simple script that sets up a shell for commands like vgdb and nmcli that are painfully lacking it - 'gdm-switch-user' tells the running GDM daemon, if any, to show the switch user screen - 'siprandom' uses the SipHash 2-4 algorithm to produce a stream of pseudo-random data; it should be fast enough to saturate most devices Don't expect them to work under any OS that isn't Linux.
