Description
(probably sometime around 2020) On my linux machine I wanted something to execute commands and open applications quickly. Something that can be opened quickly and dissapear. Also having to write some stuff over and over again can be tedious so autocomplete would be nice.
Solution
Using pythonQt to create a popup application that has a textinput. Setting up a keyboard shortcut to open it exiting when command is executed. After entering a command save it to autocomplete for next time and closing the application.
Result
Looking back
Would be nice to not store the autocomplete to mistyped/incorrect commands If you would enter something that doesn't end like some kind of loop It will stay open until you kill it manually. It's not perfect but it does it's job.
