Search an font awesome icon by name and copy it to the clipboard. Works best with a dmenu variant that does fuzzy search such as rofi, but it's compatible with plain dmenu.
If possible, it also sends a desktop notification for better user feedback.
Clone the repo. Assign a keystroke in your i3 configuration:
# ~/.config/i3/config
bindsym $mod+quotedbl exec path/to/rofi-fontawesome
