Blurs background and shows widget with run prompt:

![screenshot](./screenshot.png)

## Installation

1. Clone this repo under **~/.config/awesome/**:

    ```bash
    git clone https://github.com/streetturtle/awesome-wm-widgets.git ~/.config/awesome/
    ```

1. Require weather widget at the beginning of **rc.lua**:

    ```lua
    local run_shell = require("awesome-wm-widgets.run_shell.run_shell")
    ```

1. Use it (don't forget to comment out the default prompt):

    ```lua
    awful.key({modkey}, "r", function () run_shell.launch() end),
    ```
:warning: I am not 100% sure but it may (memory) leak. If awesome uses lots of RAM just reload config (Ctrl + Mod4 + r).
