Running
-------
```
```bash
$ phoc # if no compatible Wayland compositor is running yet
$ cd ../build/
$ src/squeekboard
```
Squeekboard honors the gnome "screen-keyboard-enabled" setting. Either enable this through gnome-settings under accessibility or run:
```bash
$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.a11y.applications screen-keyboard-enabled true
```
To make the keyboard show you can use either an application that does so automatically, like a text editor or `python3 ./tests/entry.py`, or you can manually trigger it with:
```bash
busctl call --user sm.puri.OSK0 /sm/puri/OSK0 sm.puri.OSK0 SetVisible b true
```
