I am aral (https://keybase.io/aral) on keybase.
I have a public key whose fingerprint is FB1B E897 B399 F107 780A B004 B89F B743 1702 6216

To claim this, I am signing this object:

Proposed syntax.

Preparing a query

Internally, this prepares the predicate for an array.filter() operation.

.where( propertyName ) : Start query. Returns query object.

Why

You have a laptop with a 13" screen and 1920x1080 resolution and a 4K external monitor.
You run the laptop at 1x scale.
You run the 4K screen at 2x scale (pixel doubled).
You’re running elementary OS 5.x (Hera) or elementary OS 6 (Odin)

Which means that text scale should be 1x when the 4K monitor is plugged in but it should be larger than that (at least ~1.5x) to be legible on the laptop’s screen. (Yes, the manufacturer of the laptop chose the wrong resolution for the screen. It should have been QHD (2560 × 1440) or at most QHD+ (3200×1800) so that you could run it confortably pixel doubled.)

Anyway, it’s not and you’ve already bought it (and it’s otherwise an excellent laptop) but you don’t want to change the text scale every time you plug it into and unplug it from your external monitor.

Instructions

Install plugins using Fisher.

Tide prompt customisation

Replace .config/fish/functions/_tide_item_git.fish with the file here to use words instead of symbols to describe git repository state.

	// The docs say that the appearance property of an NSPopover should be set to an
	// NSPopoverAppearance enum but it actually expects an NSAppearance instance.
	// e.g., in an NSViewController subclass:

	let popover = NSPopover()
	popover.contentViewController = self.storyboard?.instantiateControllerWithIdentifier("someViewController") as? NSViewController

	popover.appearance = NSAppearance(named: NSAppearanceNameVibrantLight)

	popover.behavior = NSPopoverBehavior.Transient

	// Unfortunately, this has to be a string right now as IBInspectable enums are not supported at the moment.
	@IBInspectable var alignmentToParentName:String = "top right"
	{
	didSet
	{
	var name = (alignmentToParentName.lowercaseString as NSString)
	let top = 0b00, bottom = 0b10, right = 0b00, left = 0b01
	var bitmask = 0b0

	// The default, even if garbage is entered in Interface Builder, is top right.

	# Load Antigen
	# (zsh plugin manager that can install plugins from git repositories)
	source "/home/aral/antigen.zsh"

	# Load oh-my-zsh.
	antigen use oh-my-zsh

	# Plugins from default repository
	# (robbyrusell’s oh-my-zsh)
	antigen bundle git

	// NSView+CustomTaggable.swift
	//
	// Allows you to set tags in Interface Builder for custom NSViews.
	//
	// Usage:
	//
	// Your custom view must implement the CustomTaggable protocol. Then, in your custom
	// NSView, declare the customTag property like this:
	//

	//
	// NSView+ChangeAnchorPointWithoutMakingTheLayerJump.swift
	//
	// Setting .anchorPoint on a layer makes the layer jump which is most
	// likely not what you want. This extension fixes that. Useful for Core Animation.
	//
	// Usage: (e.g., to set the anchor point to the centre)
	//
	// myView.setAnchorPoint(CGPointMake(0.5, 0.5))
	//
