> *euphony*: _noun_ Harmonious arrangement of sounds in composition; a smooth and agreeable combination of articulate elements in any piece of writing.

A mostly Fennel-based graphical environment tailored for the Pinephone
|
|
(other Linux-based mobile devices exist). The principles we aspire to are
|
|
|
|
* "habitable software" - build the system in such a way that a
|
|
technically competent user may change it to serve their needs,
|
|
potentially even in ways that weren't anticipated in the original
|
|
design. Emacs has this quality.
|
|
|
|
* optimised for touchscreens. My phone has no hardware keyboard and few
|
|
hardware buttons, let's play to its strengths instead of compensating for
|
|
its weaknesses
|
|
|
|
As of 2022 these principles are more aspirational than actual.
|
|
|
|
## Running it
|
|
|
|
$ nix-shell build.nix
|
|
nix-shell$ lua -e 'os.execute("kiwmi -c init.lua")'
|
|
|
|
This is suboptimally hairy, at least for the moment: Nix makes a
|
|
wrapper script for the Lua executable that has appropriate `LUA_PATH`
|
|
and `LUA_CPATH` settings, but it doesn't do the same for kiwmi
|
