Faster alternative to yad for a specific use case
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
Anyone knows a program that's faster/smaller than yad, to display gui windows with text. More specifically what i need:
- ability to control windows height/width
- control over where window is displayed via xy coordinates
- ability to change texts foreground/background
Yad is fine when i need to display few windows at once, but when i need to display +20, it becomes bit slow, plus its kinda overkill, with all those options that i don't need.
Thanks!

is a more basic tool, but I don't think it can control where a window is displayed via xy coordinates. An even simpler alternative is a TUI (text user interface) withdialog
. You can openxterm
windows and run thedialog
application in those windows. Andxterm
can control where the window is displayed via xy coordinates.
