#### Fast plain-text rule file trigger typer and window action runner for X11

A lightweight Linux X11 alternative to TyperTask for plain-text trigger
rule expansion and window actions. Independent open-source project, not
affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by TyperTask or VTask Studio.
Uses XQueryKeymap and XTest on X11; Wayland-native sessions restrict
external trigger typing watchers.

FEATURES

* Live Rules File Editor: edit plain-text trigger=action rule files with
  filesystem watcher hot-reload, side-by-side syntax validation, and an
  interactive rule tester.
* Rich Action Syntax and Runner: type plain or multiline text with Enter,
  Tab, Delay, Date, and Time tokens, launch Linux applications, open
  folders or links, and activate matching X11 windows.
* Watcher Log and Profiles: toggle the live X11 typing engine, inspect
  hot-reload and execution audit logs, switch rule profiles, and toggle
  between English and Vietnamese interfaces.
