snixembed 0.3.3

Proxy StatusNotifierItems as XEmbedded systemtray-spec icons

Snixembed is a program to proxy StatusNotifierItems as XEmbedded systemtray-spec icons. This allows programs that only support the newer StatusNotifierItem to have the older XEmbedded systemtray support. While snixembed works fine with most setups, some bars and DEs provide their own optional SNI support, which should be preferred when available.

Currently supported:

  • icons (by pixmap and by freedesktop name)

  • activation on left mouse button

  • context menu on right mouse button (Menu dbusmenu or ContextMenu)

  • tooltips (on hover, all markup except hyperlinks)

  • limited AppIndicator support as a fallback

Installation

Install snixembed 0.3.3 as follows:

guix install snixembed@0.3.3

Or install the latest version:

guix install snixembed

You can also install packages in augmented, pure or containerized environments for development or simply to try them out without polluting your user profile. See the guix shell documentation for more information.
