Description : multi-purpose (password-)prompt tool for Wayland
WayPrompt also has a TUI fallback mode for when no Wayland connection
can be established, like when invoked while using a TTY.
Installs multiple executables:
• wayprompt: CLI prompt tool
• pinentry-wayprompt: drop-in PinEntry replacement, for example for GPG
All executables use the same configuration file.
Note that this project is written in Zig which is not packaged for Debian yet,
I didn't find any other PinEntry replacement for Wayland.
