# Dequoter
|
|
|
|
A simple Boop clone for Mac OS. Useful as a scratchpad for performing text manipulation.
|
|
|
|
**Currently In Alpha:** There are some glaring issues, such as text not being saved between invocations.
|
|
This means that **if you restart the app, you will loose your work.** Treat this like an untitled TextEdit window,
|
|
where all your chances will be lost when you close it.
|

|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
This project uses [Wails](https://wails.io) to build a desktop application with a Go backend and a Vite frontend.
|
|
|
|
## Plugins
|
|
|
|
Dequoter can be extended with new filters written in [UCL](https://ucl.lmika.dev).
|
|
On startup, Dequoter creates `$HOME/Library/Application Support/dev.lmika.dequoter/plugins` if needed,
|
|
then evaluates every file ending in `.ucl` found in it (including subdirectories).
|
|
Filters are defined with the `d:filter` builtin:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
d:filter "String: To Upper Case" { |in|
|
|
strs:to-upper $in
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`d:filter` takes a label, which is what appears in the command palette (Cmd+P), and a proc. The proc is
|
|
called with the text to process as its only argument. The result of the proc becomes the filter output:
|
|
strings are used as-is, other values are converted to their string form, and a proc that returns nothing
|
|
is reported as an error. Errors raised with `error` are shown in the status bar.
|
|
|
|
A plugin filter with the same label as a built-in filter replaces it in the palette. If two plugin files
|
|
define the same label, the one loaded later wins (files are loaded in lexical path order). Files that
|
|
fail to load are skipped and reported in the status bar; the remaining files are still loaded.
|
|
|
|
After editing plugin files, choose File → Reload Plugins (Shift+Cmd+R) to rescan the directory without
|
|
restarting. This discards the previous plugin filters and UCL interpreter state before loading the files again.
|
|
Use File → Open Plugins in Finder or File → Open Plugins in Terminal to access the directory.
|
|
If you have plugins in the old `$HOME/.config/dequoter/plugins` directory, move them to the new location.
