@lucy zsh tho

wifi=("${(f)"$(/usr/sbin/iw dev wlp4s0 link)"}")
wifi_ssid=${wifi[(r)[^:]SSID:*]//[^:]*: /}
wifi_strength=$((2 * (${${wifi[(r)[^:]signal:*]//[^:]*: /}/ *} + 100)))

print "$wifi_ssid ($wifi_strength%)"

@lucy could actually parse the output into an associative array here too

@mia@shrimptest.0x0.st @lucy@netzsphaere.xyz arguably less comprehensible, would it at least be faster?

@zvava @lucy of course it would be

@lucy @zvava it only runs one command, not 5, and zsh is also a much faster script interpreter than bash

@lucy @zvava okay just do it in lua then smh

@lucy @zvava fun fact i’m angry with waybar because it wastes so many cpu cycles it’s not even funny

just because it uses gnome libraries

@lucy @zvava yeah i just don’t like when my laptop uses more than 5W when it’s not even doing any real work

@lucy @zvava that’s just the desktop portal stuff and you don’t have to use the gnome versions
