@Twakyr I’ve been a hardcore gentoo user/fan for 20+ years, I thought I’d never be able to use anything else till I started playing with Nix this year. The granular configurability of each individual package has yet been unmatched for me in any other distro till Nix. For #gentoo though, I’d highly recommend taking great care in tailoring your /etc/portage/make.conf, setup /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf with sync-type = git, and use /etc/portage/package.{use,mask,unmask,accept_keywords} as directories for individual packages. I tend to keep a /etc/portage/package.mask/failed file for upgrade blockages fer me to unfuck after a emerge -avuDUN @world succeeds.

This is so much less helpful than just posting “I don’t know” or “beats me”.First, if you’re gonna post code, put it in a code block. And nevermind you not knowing if the ““code is good””, it doesn’t even adhere to the question that was asked; the two programs you suggested are not even wayland compatible tools.

Haven’t ever done this in wayland, but in X, I always used toxdotoolto grab the title of the active window. I’d guess you could do the same using one of the wayland alternatives likeydotool,wlrctl,dotool, or whatever else is out there. And something likegrimto grab an image of the window.
@PiraHxCx Unless something new has come along to beat it, #ImageMagick is prolly the best tool there is. It ain’t perty, but it does perty much everything you might ever need.

@Twakyr YES, I completely forgot about that, thank you @nyan! Definitely install
equery, this is an invaluable tool.
