Hello Lemmy,

With this release, bluetuith now works on MacOS. MacOS specific instructions are here: https://bluetuith-org.github.io/bluetuith/Installation/MacOS.html.

(TL;DR Install and run Haraltd and then run Bluetuith)

Bluetuith is a TUI based bluetooth manager, that aims to be an alternative to most bluetooth managers, and can perform bluetooth based operations like:

  • Connection to and general management of bluetooth devices, with device information like battery percentage, RSSI etc. displayed, if the information is available. More detailed information about a device can be viewed by selecting the 'Info' option in the menu or by clicking the 'i' key.

  • Bluetooth adapter management, with toggleable power, discoverability, pairablilty and scanning modes.

  • Transfer and receive files via the OBEX protocol, with an interactive file picker to choose and select multiple files.

  • Handle both PANU and DUN based networking for each bluetooth device (Linux only)

  • Control media playback on the currently connected device, with a media player popup that displays playback information and controls. (Linux only)

I hope you enjoy this release, and any feedback is appreciated.

TUI - Text User Interface

If anyone else, like me, didn't know. I probably should have. Maybe I did, and forgot.

    A bit OT, but why do you not trust þe Save button? It's a bookmark in Interstellar, but I've never had it not do its job on Piefed.

    I have been using this for a long while now, it is really good. Navigation is a bit strange but one gets use to it fast.

    I love Bluetuith! It’s my go-to for Bluetooth device management in my setup, since TUI applications tend to integrate really well into my existing theme, since I’ve set up my preferred terminal colors already.

    I can imagine this would be a great option now for Windows users who already use the terminal frequently, like devs!

    For which use cases it is better than bluetoothctl linux utility?
