This is the case for me as well. I tried NixOS this weekend, and even though it has more adoption than Guix, it still does not have 100% coverage of all software I wanted. That said, the packages I did install were pretty up-to-date. I guess NixOS is as close to "critical mass" as we've got when it comes to this type of OS. But if I were a wizard devops type person with more time, I'd probably enjoy Guix more.

Given encouragement to try tmux, here is what I've come up with as a "one-liner" (script) that does what I was originally looking for:

#!/bin/sh

tmux new-session -d -s split_screen_grep \; \
  send-keys "/bin/sh -c '$1' | tee /tmp/split_screen_grep.txt" C-m \; \
  split-window -h \; \
  select-pane -t 1 \; \
  send-keys "tail -f /tmp/split_screen_grep.txt | grep '$2'" C-m \;

tmux attach-session -t split_screen_grep

I use it as follows, first arg is a command, second arg is a pattern to search for:

$ ./split-grep "cat big_file.txt" "tmux"

Thanks! I'm curious if there is a way to do this as a one-liner?

Elegant and flexible, thank you!

ChatGPT suggests the following:

1. Run tmux
2. rsync -naP --exclude-from=rsync-homedir-local.txt /home/$USER/ $BACKUPDIR/ | tee /tmp/rsync_output.txt
3. Ctrl+B % # splits screen vertically
4. Ctrl+B right-arrow-key # moves to right split
5. tail -f /tmp/rsync_output.txt | grep denied

Not quite a one-liner, but I can see how tmux is a big help here.

Interesting, I'll check it out, thanks!

There are no errors in the journalctl or steam logs?

Is it possible your Sweet-Dark-v40 theme is interacting poorly with Steam here? It seems to crash right after that unexpected identifier 'direction' and subsequent errors. Maybe try switching themes and see if it has any effect?

I don't know if this is related, but recently when updating graphics card packages, some of my flatpak apps (Bitwarden, especially) required removing cached GPU files:

rm -rf ~/.var/app/com.bitwarden.desktop/config/Bitwarden/Partitions/bitwarden/GPUCache

Could something similar be going on here for you?

Keep an eye on Pop COSMIC. It isn't ready yet, but I'd give it 4 months and I think it would be a great match for something like rpi.

This makes more sense, thanks.

Is it possible to get this to work with OBS studio? I see the author mentions OBS as an "Alternative Project" but it seems ideal to have these pieces work together.
