.conf to .lua config converter

[mediumraresteak0]

I know this may be asking too much from the devs but, can you add a .conf to a .lua config file converter when hyprland 0.55 comes out?

Working on one.

Hi! Did you land on an implementation yet? I have very simple binding set up and some window rules, I could really use a translator from hyperlang to lua

I do not recommend, in all honesty. It's much better to ask AI to do this.

The point of lua is to get rid of hacks and bash scripts - if you keep using those, it's just going to suck.

An automatic converter can't take random bash scripts and translate them to lua.

Challenge accepted!
Just give me access to a CProccess to run async with fds for stdio and runs a lua cb on completion!

[mediumraresteak0]

so, Hyprland 0.55 is gonna use lua now to get rid of the use of bash scripts?

[Ellath3may0]

no it's specific to the hyprland config. so eventually, hyprland.conf will no longer work and you'll need to replace it with hyprland.lua

Could you have just presented proof of WHY LINUX failed to become popular before AI @vaxerski

Can you check if mines works for you? If you encounter any problem file a issue

I havent tested the converted config yet but I just took a look at the converted config and it's really cool!
