Fuzzel is great. I only wish it had a pinentry option.
I should have read the article first – passphrases and pinentry are here
That’s right! We are just waiting for someone to focus a pinentry/fuzzel script now. All the necessary features are there it seems.
The script is there in the post, but I haven’t tried it yet. It would be nice if fuzzel had a message option, like rofi, so that key information could be displayed in the passphrases request; that s is what pinentry-rofi uses.
Yes. The message could be added to the prompt but it wouldn’t look the best.
It might be nice to have a way of giving more context, which is what the message option was good for in rofi. Not knocking it though, I am a happy fuzzel user.
You could add a feature request in the Fuzzel bug tracker. A screenshot of how it is used in Fuzzel could be helpful there.
Let me try for a pinentry script over the weekend first, to see how the placeholder looks.
