Description:

xrcat 1.0.0

xrcat
This is a small package for getting resources from Xresources. It can be used as a python module or as a CLI tool.
Usage
In the command line:
$ xrcat "dwm.background"
#1d2021

As a python module:
from xrcat import xrcat

# Load current resources into xrcat
xrcat.updateResources()

# Get the resource
print(xrcat.getResource("dwm.background"))
# Output: '#1d2021'

Wildcards
xrcat also supports wildcards matching. This means that if you for example want dwm.background and the value is None, xrcat will match it to *.background. Matches are prioritized based on length so for the example above *.background will be choosen instead of *background even though both are matches. This behavior is implemented to ensure that program specific resources are selected before general resources.
Contributing
I am very new to making packages, so if you know anything that needs polishing or fixing, I am all ears. All help appreciated!
