I perfected it; #serpico, the Semi-sentient RatPoison Interactive COmpanion

'watching y*utube in ratpoison with #links2, practical example'

https://nein.triapul.cz/technology/openbsd/ratpoison/watching_videos/

(It's semi sentient, because, if I say hi, it says hi back.)

The documentary is: "Dada and Surrealism: Europe After the Rain"

@prahou @screwtape I thought Ratpoison is some Youtube downloader but now I see it's a window manager.

What is meant with "This post is not sponsored by the #links2gang, but it should be." on the page?

@clock @screwtape This probably doesn't work anymore, use https://fuyt.lab8.cz instead to find videos

@prahou @screwtape That's amazing in Links! It even has thumbnails!

Could you add a links "play in Links", which would contain a text file with the Youtube URL and for that text file return content type text/x-youtube-uri and one would put into Links into the associations an association of text/x-youtube-uri to run mpv --playlist=% ?

I just tested that mpv --playlist=file_with_URL.txt works.

I already asked Mikulas to make something like associations but for URL but he hasn't done it. I think this is an elegant workaround and Links users could easily search and watch Youtube videos.

@clock @screwtape

by the way, did you ever consider using TAB to cycle through links (and images)? It would help mouse-less and arrow-less setups.

@prahou @screwtape I didn't consider it. I don't know whether Mikulas considered it. TAB is used to cycle between frames, see Links browser→Help→Keys (F1)→TAB
