# Description: tabbed/xembed based file previewer
#
# Dependencies:
#   - tabbed (https://tools.suckless.org/tabbed): xembed host
#   - xterm (or urxvt or st) : xembed client for text-based preview
#   - mpv (https://mpv.io): xembed client for video/audio
#   - sxiv (https://github.com/muennich/sxiv) or,
#   - nsxiv (https://codeberg.org/nsxiv/nsxiv) : xembed client for images
#   - zathura (https://pwmt.org/projects/zathura): xembed client for PDF
#   - nnn's nuke plugin for text preview and fallback
#     nuke is a fallback for 'mpv', 'sxiv'/'nsxiv', and 'zathura', but has its
#     own dependencies, see the script for more information
#   - vim (or any editor/pager really)
#   - file
#   - mktemp
#   - xdotool (optional, to keep main window focused)
#
# Usage:
#   - Install the dependencies. Then set a NNN_FIFO
#     and set a key for the plugin, then start `nnn`:
#       $ NNN_FIFO=/tmp/nnn.fifo nnn
#   - Launch the plugin with the designated key from nnn
#
# Notes:
#   1. This plugin needs a "NNN_FIFO" to work. See man.
#   2. If the same NNN_FIFO is used in multiple nnn instances, there will be one
#      common preview window. With different FIFO paths, they will be independent.
#
# How it works:
#   We use `tabbed` [1] as a xembed [2] host, to have a single window
#   owning each previewer window. So each previewer must be a xembed client.
#   For text previewers, this is not an issue, as there are a lot of
#   xembed-able terminal emulator (we default to `xterm`, but examples are
#   provided for `urxvt` and `st`). For graphic preview this can be trickier,
#   but a few popular viewers are xembed-able, we use:
#     - `mpv`: multimedia player, for video/audio preview
#     - `sxiv`/`nsxiv`: image viewer
#     - `zathura`: PDF viewer
#     - but we always fallback to `nuke` plugin
