bluetuith - An open source TUI based bluetooth manager v0.1.7 is released

Hello Lemmy,

Bluetuith is a TUI based bluetooth manager for Linux, that aims to be an alternative to most bluetooth managers, and can perform bluetooth based operations like:

  • Connection to and general management of bluetooth devices, with device information like battery percentage, RSSI etc. displayed, if the information is available. More detailed information about a device can be viewed by selecting the ‘Info’ option in the menu or by clicking the ‘i’ key.
  • Bluetooth adapter management, with toggleable power, discoverability, pairablilty and scanning modes.
  • Transfer and receive files via the OBEX protocol, with an interactive file picker to choose and select multiple files.
  • Handle both PANU and DUN based networking for each bluetooth device
  • Control media playback on the currently connected device, with a media player popup that displays playback information and controls.

This release contains the following new features:

  • Adapter status display, which will dynamically show whether the adapter is in any of the powered/discoverable/pairable/scanning states
  • A HJSON based configuration format, with customizable keybindings and optional config file generation
  • Popup resize and mouse-handling improvements. Each popup can now be closed by pressing the ‘X’ button

I hope you enjoy this release, and any feedback is appreciated.
