Add a systemd service to automatically run Emacs deamon in the background on startup:

https://github.com/DaveDavenport/rofi/issues/584#issuecomment-384555551
Use sudo -A, that will open a rofi prompt to ask for the password.
For that to work, we need to add the following code to ~/.profile:
export SUDO_ASKPASS=~/bin/askpass-rofi
The askpass script is:
#!/bin/sh
# Take password prompt from STDIN, print password to STDOUT
# the sed piece just removes the colon from the provided
# prompt: rofi -p already gives us a colon
rofi -dmenu \

https://github.com/languitar/pass-git-helper
Configuration
First, add the relation between repository addresses and entries in pass. This is done in the following config file .config/pass-git-helper/git-pass-mapping.ini:
[github.com*]
target=github.com/tdehaeze
Then, add the credential helper on the git configuration file ~/.gitconfig and add the default username for the repositories adresses.
[credential]
helper = !pass-git-helper $@
[credential "https://github.com"]
username = tdehaezeBookmark Manager: Buku
Integration with Rofi
Synchronization with a git repository
The database is stored in ~/.local/share/buku/bookmarks.db.
We initialize a git repository in this folder:
cd ~/.local/share/buku/bookmarks.db
git init
Then we create a script that will automatically add bookmarks.db and push to some repository: ~/scripts/buku_git_push.sh.
To automatically run the script every day, a systemd unit is used: ~/.config/systemd/user/bukugit.timer and ~/.config/systemd/user/bukugit.service
systemctl start --user bukugit.timer
systemctl enable --user bukugit.timerImport Bookmarks from Firefox and Chrome
From Firefox, export the bookmarks as html file.
Then import the bookmark file using buku -i bookmarks.html.
This will add a tag with current date to all bookmarks imported.
To remove them, use: buku --replace '2018dec20' ''
TODO Browser: qutebrowser
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser
Integration with Pass: the password manager
Add the key-binding on ~/.config/qutebrowser/config.py
config.bind(',p', 'spawn --userscript password_fill')
The password_fill script can be found on github.com.
It is configured using the ~/.config/qutebrowser/password_fill_rc file.

Solution is provided here: https://github.com/wee-slack/wee-slack/issues/118 It uses multiline.pl script. Then alt-enter is bound to insert a new line:
/set plugins.var.perl.multiline.magic_paste_only on
/key bind meta-ctrl-M /input insert \x0a
And enter is bound to magic_enter that directly sends the message if its one line, and if its multiple line, waits a little bit and then sends the message:
/key bind ctrl-M /input magic_enter

It seems the color is due to this part of the script. Should then source this file somehow.
