Unlike ranger, Joshuto allows to set the cursor in the children-panel with a right click. + +## Using joshuto with [qutebrowser](https://qutebrowser.org/) + +In order to use joshuto as the file picker in qutebrowser, you need to first add a quit +keybind that outputs the selected files. You can do this in `keymap.toml` like so: + + +```toml +[default_view] + +keymap = [ + { keys = ["o"], command = "quit --output-selected-files" }, + # other keybinds... +] +``` + +Next, you need to edit qutebrowser's `config.py` to open joshuto in your terminal of choice, +then output the resulting directory, file, or files to a file named `{}`. Here's an example +with [kitty](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/index.html): + +```python +# Use joshuto as the file selector +c.fileselect.handler = 'external' +c.fileselect.folder.command = ['kitty', '-e', 'joshuto', '--output-file', '{}'] +c.fileselect.multiple_files.command = ['kitty', '-e', 'joshuto', '--output-file', '{}'] +c.fileselect.single_file.command = ['kitty', '-e', 'joshuto', '--output-file', '{}'] +``` + +Now when the file picker opens in qutebrowser, you should see joshuto in your terminal emulator +of choice. Use the visual selector (default `V`) if you need to select multiple files and press +the key you defined earlier to send the file or files you highlighted back to qutebrowser. |
