# Fedora tools
Small utilities for Fedora Linux, distributed as RPM packages through a Gitea
package registry. Installed tools receive updates through DNF and compatible
graphical software managers.
These tools are developed with the help of AI.
## Repository
```bash
sudo dnf config-manager addrepo \
--from-repofile=https://git.ajpanton.se/ajp_anton/fedora-tools/raw/branch/main/fedora-tools.repo
```
```bash
sudo dnf install touchpad-hold-tap
sudo dnf install plasma-always-show-unlock
```
## Compatibility
The primary test environment is a Framework Laptop 13 Pro running Fedora Linux
44 on x86_64, with KDE Plasma 6.7 and a Wayland session using KWin.
Compatibility with other Fedora releases, desktop environments, display
systems, architectures, or distributions may be limited.
## Tools
### Touchpad hold-tap
Experimental. Recognizes a one-finger hold followed by a quick tap from a
second finger and emits a middle click. The held finger may move between taps.
Repeating the tap while holding the first finger produces repeated clicks,
including double middle clicks.
The `touchpad-hold-tap` package requires libinput 1.30 or newer and a compositor
that enables libinput plugins. Log out and back in after installation or an
update so the compositor reloads the plugin.
### Always-visible Plasma unlock prompt
The `plasma-always-show-unlock` package keeps Plasma's password and fingerprint
prompt visible from the moment the lock screen appears, including after the
display is turned off or the system resumes from sleep.
The package applies a narrow patch to Plasma 6.7's lock-screen QML and reapplies
it after `plasma-desktop` updates. An unknown future layout is left unchanged
instead of being modified speculatively. Removing the package restores Plasma's
original behavior.
