First public release. Run-or-raise for KDE Plasma 6 (Wayland and X11):
press a global shortcut to focus a matching window, or launch the app if
none is open.

Added

  • kjumpd daemon: registers a global shortcut per app via kglobalaccel,
    raises matching windows through KWin's scripting D-Bus, and launches the
    configured command when no window matches. Owns its own kglobalaccel
    component, so all bindings appear as a single KJump section in
    System Settings → Shortcuts, persistent across daemon restarts.
  • Bidirectional shortcut sync: edits in the GUI push to kglobalaccel, and
    edits made in System Settings sync back into apps.json.
  • kjump-config GUI (PySide6): manage apps and shortcuts, pick from
    installed applications, and grab a window's class with Pick from
    window…
    .
  • kjump <entry> CLI: trigger run-or-raise from the command line by an
    entry's id or name (case-insensitive) — for scripting and automation
    without binding a global shortcut.
  • --version on kjumpd, kjump-config, and kjump.
  • Per-user make install / make uninstall (to ~/.local, no root),
    including a systemd user unit for the daemon and a dependency check.
  • MIT license.

Notes

  • The Qt 6 qdbus CLI the GUI shells out to is named qdbus-qt6 on
    Fedora/Debian and qdbus6 on Arch; kjump-config resolves whichever
    is present.
