This way I could call my bookmarks from anywhere on the computer, whether from Vim, Emacs, the browser itself, the window manager or wherever. +I'm still not sure if I'm going to turn this project into a CLI tool or a library. I still need to try to integrate Lum with some other tool and evaluate which points I failed, which ones I need to improve and where I got things right. +I also wanted to have contact with Rust in practice. I have some things to say about the Rust language, but I think that will be for another post on this blog. + +For now, I'm using JSON to save the bookmarks, but to be honest I don't know if I'll keep this format until the end. +I'm still evaluating whether this would be the most practical and quickest way, considering that I already accumulated more than 12 thousand bookmarks at the height of my NEET time. +I don't think parsing 12 thousand objects in JSON is efficient, but it's something I still need to test in practice. + +Although it is not really necessary to run this program, having fzf and xclip would be great if you want to integrate with other programs. A pretty useful command to fetch your bookmarks would be: +#+BEGIN_SRC bash +$ lum -l | fzf | xclip -selection clipboard +#+END_SRC |
