actually, this is so simple and so specific I should probably just attempt to write it in Rust as a practice project.
What I basically want is a global hot key I can press to pop up a textbox, enter a sentence and it will append it to a specific file.

@RustyCrab this isn't even enough code to justify a bash script just use echo >

@why it's a path I'll investigate but I'm not sure what the interface for text entry would look like. I do want some control over that rather than a bigass console coming up in my face.

@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co @why@shitposter.world basically thought of the same thing but with making a wm prompt box (i.e dmenu) but >needs to work on windows stopped this

@iska @why if windows has an equivalent of zenity I can just build a different script because this took maybe 10 minutes in total

@iska @why cc @pwm also

#!/bin/bash FILE_PATH="$HOME/shitnotes.txt" TEXT=$(zenity --entry --title="Shit out a note with Shitnote" --text="WRITE:") if [ -n "$TEXT" ]; then echo "- [ ] $TEXT" >> "$FILE_PATH" fi

the - [ ] gets translated as a checkable box in obsidian
