[FEATURE] Haiku support

Open win8linux opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

QOwnNotes at the moment requires X11 on UNIX platforms, due to some libraries it needs. This prevents it from being compiled and run on Haiku.

Describe the solution you'd like

QOwnNotes and its libraries have Haiku support added, wherever necessary.

Describe alternatives you've considered

QOWnNotes and its libraries make use of Xlibe, a compatibility layer for X11.

Additional context

Initial investigation suggests that aside from the main app, QHotkey specifically needs to have Haiku support written for it. Aside from not typically having X11, Haiku is otherwise usually considered a Unix/Unix-like platform. The Nextcloud client was recently ported to Haiku, spurring an initial attempt at getting QOwnNotes to compile and run on this OS.

I guess then you'd first need to open a feature request at https://github.com/Skycoder42/QHotkey, because other than that QOwnNotes mostly depends on Qt...

Right, thanks! On another note, it seems that the future of QHotkey itself may be in question: https://github.com/Skycoder42/QHotkey/issues/90

No Wayland support in QHotkey anyway... but the global shortcuts still work in X11
