v0.3.0
25688bd

Superseded by v0.3.1.
This 0.3.0 build was published under the MIT license and stays that way.
From 0.3.1 onward WordWrap is licensed under the GNU GPL-3.0-or-later.

First public release.

WordWrap fixes text typed in the wrong keyboard layout on GNOME / Wayland -
select the mistyped text, press a hotkey, and it is rewritten through the
correct layout while the system layout switches to match.

Highlights

  • Bidirectional en <-> ru, direction detected from the text itself.
  • Works in editors, browsers, VS Code, Telegram, and (separate hotkey) terminals.
  • System-tray app: enable/disable, colour or monochrome icon, About dialog.
  • Bilingual UI (English default, Russian selectable), launch-on-login toggle.
  • Robust layout switching (gsettings + GNOME shortcut fallback).
  • Single-instance lock; text content never logged; no network access.

Hotkeys (configurable)

Action Key
Convert selection Ctrl+F1
Convert in a terminal Ctrl+Shift+F1
Convert last word Ctrl+F2
Enable / disable Ctrl+Pause

Install

pipx install git+https://github.com/sgk-dev/wordwrap@v0.3.0
sgk-wordwrap --install-desktop        # add to the applications menu
# add yourself to the 'input' group once, then log out/in:
sudo usermod -aG input "$USER"

Or from a clone: bash packaging/install.sh.

Known limitations

  • GNOME on Wayland only (X11/KDE code exists but is untested).
  • Does not work inside full-screen TUIs (the Claude Code prompt, vim, tmux).
  • Password-field detection is best-effort on Wayland.
