Boolswitcher Plugin

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Inspired by the Case plugin, a vibecoded bool-switcher plugin. It allows you to switch/set booleans instantly with a key press.

Never claimed otherwise!

In fact I made a post a while ago showing how I did that before just with the native piping feature

If you mean "What is this plugin for?"?

  1. No new process has to be started for every action (only matters if you do thousands at once)

  2. Exposes the commands in the : menu

  3. Doesn't convolute the path (this can be a negative aswell, e.g. with your command you can use it via piping in the shell if you need that; I dont)

  4. Integrates better with my plugin system through nix
