Just wondering since I know a lot of people quietly use a screen-area-select -> tesseract OCR -> clipboard shortcut.
- I separate subjects of interest into different Firefox windows, in different workspaces – so I have an extension title them and a startup script parse text to ask the compositor to put them in the correct workspace (lets me restart more conveniently).
- I have automatically-set different-orientation wallpapers for using my 2-in-1 depending on whether I use it in portrait or landscape (kind of just for looks, but I don’t think if anyone else adds a wallpaper change to their screen rotation keybind).
Why not use an address book?
Because email clients are not the only place where I enter emails. And not every program supports address book integration.
I might be filling out online forms and enter someone’s email or phone number or any other long string such as full name I can’t remember how to properly spell.
At least Google and Outlook accounts support sharing the address book through the account, so it doesn’t matter where you use it from.
Seems like privacy respecting alternatives could do that, too.
Is there Google and/or Outlook integration into a terminal (Konsole) I’m not aware of?
What implied there’s a terminal client? I don’t think you mentioned it, either. Did you reply to the correct comment?
Either way, both Gmail and Outlook support POP and IMAP, so if you have a terminal e-mail client there’s an about 100% chance it works with Gmail and Outlook.
