    To update, please run omarchy-update all. That'll run all existing migrations to ensure that you're fully caught up. Then the next update should just need omarchy-update since we changed the migration strategy.

    Screenshot image manipulation

    Now when you hit PrintScreen for region, SHIFT + PrintScreen for window, or CTRL + PrintScreen for whole display, your screenshot will be sent to satty for manipulation. You can hit esc to abort the screenshot or hit enter to both place it on the clipboard and save it.

    Screenrecording for region or window

    The new screenrecording setup starts recording as soon as the notification that says "Screenrecording starting..." disappears after hitting ALT + PrintScreen (for region) or CTRL + ALT + PrintScreen (for whole display). You stop the recording by hitting the same keybinding again. Videos are saved to ~/Videos.

    Walker is the new app launcher

    Wofi was visibly slow with reordering the app launcher list, and limited in terms of extensions. Walker is our new replacement. It should look and feel almost exactly like Wofi, it'll just be way faster, there's now a built-in calculator on "345+223" that'll put the result on the clipboard, and you can find any emoji by starting search with a dot, so ":fire" will find something like ❤️‍🔥, which return puts on the clipboard.

    Fabulous work by Walker creator @abenz1267 and @ryanrhughes to make all the tweaks required for nailing the Omarchy aesthetic and feel 🤘
