README.md

eufon

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
