The upstream app is macOS-only (Swift/SwiftUI, CoreML/WhisperKit) and can't run on Linux or in a container. This adds a native host tool under linux/ that reproduces the workflow: focus any text field, press a hotkey, speak, and the optionally-rewritten text is typed into that field. - Engine: pynput global hotkeys → mic record → local faster-whisper → optional OpenAI-compatible rewrite → xdotool typing into the focused window - Frontends: system tray (AppIndicator, default), tkinter control panel, and headless modes - Config-driven workflows in ~/.config/blitztext/config.toml with per-workflow prompt/model/temperature overrides - Packaging: install.sh, requirements.txt, systemd user unit - Targets X11; local transcription runs CPU int8 on this arm64 host See linux/CHANGELOG.md and linux/README.md for details.

Done. To start it:
|
|
|
|
$VENV/bin/python -m blitztext tray # system tray (needs: sudo apt install python3-gi)
|
|
$VENV/bin/python -m blitztext gui # control-panel window
|
|
$VENV/bin/python -m blitztext run # headless, hotkeys only
|
|
|
|
Edit your config (hotkeys, Whisper model, rewrite endpoint) at:
|
|
|
|
\$($VENV/bin/python -m blitztext config-path)
|
|
|
|
For the rewrite workflows, export your key first, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
|
|
|
|
To run it in the background on login, see blitztext.service in this folder.
