Tofi

Tofi is a minimal application launcher and dialog for Wayland (and X11). This folder holds the main config and a separate config for the power menu.

What the config does

• config (general launcher)

  • Prompt "> "; colours: text, prompt, selection, background (with alpha).
  • Layout: full width/height, padding (e.g. 35% left, 30% top), no border/outline, 8 results, spacing 14.
  • Font: Cantarell, weight 600, size 24.

• powermenu-config (power menu dialog)

  • Same layout style with different colours (e.g. Catppuccin-like selection and background).
  • Prompt " "; 6 results; padding 35% left, 32% top; font size 32.
  • Used when you run tofi as a power menu (e.g. tofi --config ~/.config/tofi/powermenu-config or a wrapper script that shows “Shutdown / Reboot / Lock / …” and runs the chosen action).

How to use it

1. Install tofi.
2. Symlink or copy this folder to ~/.config/tofi/.
3. As app launcher – Run tofi (or tofi-run); it will use config and show installed .desktop apps. Often bound to a key (e.g. Super+R) in your compositor.
4. As power menu – Run tofi with the power menu config and a list of commands, e.g.:
   • echo -e "Lock\nSuspend\nReboot\nShutdown" | tofi --config ~/.config/tofi/powermenu-config then branch on selection to run hyprlock, systemctl suspend, etc.
   • Or use a script/wrapper that calls tofi with powermenu-config and handles the chosen action. Waybar’s custom/power in this repo runs powermenu, which can be such a script.
