Configuration
By default the tool will try to determine your terminal and filepicker automatically by checking if you have one of the
supported ones installed, if you want to use a specific one please edit $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xdg-termfilechooser-bridge/config.toml
terminal = "ghostty"
filepicker = "yazi"
start_at_last_selected_dir = true
Supported file pickers
If your favorite terminal filepicker isn't available feel free to add it yourself or open an issue with the required invoke parameters.
Supported terminals
If your favorite terminal isn't available feel free to add it yourself or open an issue with the required invoke parameters.
Motivation
The default script of xdg-desktop-portal-termfilechooser has had several issues in the past and beyond these I wanted to customize the behaviour of it further so I wrote a tool to do so.
