feature request: Windows support
What an amazing project! It would be nice if it could also be used under Windows Is there a way to do it please?
As a Windows-based user, I am now filled with envy, jealousy and anticipation.
There is always a way, but as the Windows ecosystem vastly differs from the current two implemented ones (Linux and MacOS) it would require substantial efforts, which I highly doubt the lead developer (@rvaiya) is willing to invest.
Besides, and slightly off topic, I can't resist commenting that porting software which is all about efficiency to an operating system which is (arguably) the exact opposite might somewhat defeat the purpose...
I may get around to a windows port at some point in the future, but I already have a lot in my backlog. Patches are welcome :).

Do you know of any autohotkey scripts that work like this? AHK is only as good as the scripts you have

i personally like this one: https://github.com/wirekang/mouseable TPMouse has bad customization, but is what really make it worse than mouseable is that TPM doesn't block u from typing upon call. It does not remove focus from current window and keep typing while moving cursor. At least for me (tested in MVS and couple browsers).

Just tested, moving the cursor works fine without any stray key inputs. Did you perhaps press the wrong keys?
I personally like it for the way normal mode works, it feels much more natural than the fixed-speed cursor motion of the others, reminds me of playing Super Mario.

Neither are autohotkey scripts, which is what was suggested by @yyy33, but TPMouse looks interesting I might try it. Haven't done anything with basic in decades, but it'll be good to get back to the basics (sorry for the pun). I don't like t he idea of having to run chrome or edge just to use the software, which unless I'm misunderstanding is what's required for mouseable
There is in fact a beta windows version sitting in master. I pushed it some time ago, but haven't had time to make a proper release. I don't have time to test it at the moment (or remember what state I left it in), but I just published the binary built from the tip of master here if you want to give it a try. YMMV
Will this beta release work with Windows 11?
EDIT: tried this and got this error message:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
---------------------------
Assertion failed!
Program: ...
File: src/platform/windows/filemon.c
Line: 49
Expression: mon != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE

Yep, I got the same error. But once it turned out and the program remained in the tray. But I couldn't get into the config settings.
A more verbose report:
When i boot warpd on my Win11 machine, I receive the same error as Avastgard and Chizhov. I get an error popup, and a black rectangle that I assume is some sort of unrendered GUI?
-
Selecting abort closes the application.
-
Selecting retry puts the application in my try, but kills it shortly after.
-
Selecting abort results in a second, very similar error:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Assertion failed!

Abort Retry Ignore
---------------------------
After clicking ignore again, similar behaviour to initially selecting 'Retry' is observed.
After poking around at /platform/windows/filemon.c, it seems like the issue is with file creation. Booting in admin mode doesn't help the problem, but perhaps it's a directory access issue?
Hey, I tried to fix this and failed, so I implemented my own in csharp.

Hope you find this useful.
@GhengS enjoy!
Apologies. The original build I released was broken. I have fixed the issues and released another build which can be found here:
https://github.com/rvaiya/warpd/releases/tag/v1.3.7-windows-alpha (read the release notes).
Please be aware that this is currently alpha quality software. I don't have much time to maintain the windows version, and don't dogfood it (so bugs are less likely to be discovered). That said, feel free to post issues as they arise.

it doesn't work on windows 10 for me. When the program starts, a black rectangle (probably window) appears and nothing can be done with it
Crashes for me every time I try to use it while on my second monitor.

Like @Salted-Bread I can't use it on a second screen. If I mouse over my second screen and initiate hint mode then I get this:
I think you can get away with closing this ticket though since it does work on windows. Bugs can be their own tickets...
