#coord

coord displays coordinates on the screen and prints the position of the one you type. One use is to click things with your keyboard:

xdotool mousemove $(coord); xdotool click 1

coord is part of the Tiles desktop environment.

#Install

coord is just a Python 3 script that requires PyQt6, but you could run:

cp coord /usr/local/bin

to add it to your $PATH.

#Notes

You can tweak the coordinates with the arrow keys.

If you can't see your desktop behind the coordinates, try it with a compositor like xcompmgr or picom running.

#Contact

You can send questions, thoughts or patches by composing an email to ~geb/public-inbox@lists.sr.ht.
