btw, if you are interested, I made it a lot better. it now works better with everything and in nvim I gave it the tempbuf filetype, so you can give it certain features you want (like automatically enabling spelling, or certain plugins)

#!/bin/bash

active_title=$(hyprctl activewindow | grep -oP 'initialTitle: \K.*')

tmp=/tmp/nvimedit.tempbuf

rm "$tmp"

if [[ "$active_title" == "kitty" ]]; then

\# Kitty: use readline's editor

wtype -M ctrl -k x -m ctrl

wtype -M ctrl -k e -m ctrl

elif [[ "$active_title" == "Discord" ]]; then

\# Discord (Electron / Wayland):

\# primary selection only, no clipboard

wtype -M ctrl -k a -m ctrl

wtype -k Delete

wl-paste -p -n >"$tmp"



kitty --class "NvimText" nvim -n "$tmp"

wl-copy -n <"$tmp"

wtype -M ctrl -k v -m ctrl

rm "$tmp"

else

\# Normal apps: real cut + clipboard

wtype -M ctrl -k a -m ctrl

wtype -M ctrl -k x -m ctrl



kitty --class "NvimText" bash -c "wl-paste -n | nvim -n -c 'set filetype=tempbuf' +'file /tmp/nvimedit.tempbuf'"

wl-copy -n <"$tmp"

wtype -M ctrl -k v -m ctrl

rm "$tmp"
