#
# A basic screen recording script based on wf-recorder for sway,
# required executables:
# xdg-user-dir - to find out the user VIDEOS directory
# wf-recorder - for the actual screen recording
# jq - to parse JSON
# slurp - to select a screen area
# notify-send - for notification functionality
#
# Loosely based on:
# https://gist.github.com/ugursogukpinar/f390d9f4c829fb1b05fc74a12dd482bb
#
# Usage:
# screenrecord.sh - record whole screen
# screenrecord.sh -s - record screen area
# screenrecord.sh -w - record window
# screenrecord.sh -t - (may be used with any other option) if screenrecording
# is currently active, toggle it off and no recording takes
# place
