GNOME Notifications for Remote Weechat

I ❤ Weechat. It’s my IRC client of choice. But I also use it for gtalk and Slack. All my conversations in one convenient interface. Even better, I run it in a remote tmux session so I can pick up wherever I left off from anywhere.

The only annoying thing about this setup was the lack of real notifications for private messages or mentions. So I wrote Weelisten.

Weelisten is a small python script that leverages Weechat’s relay protocol, python 3 asyncio and libnotify so I can get awesome native notifications on my desktop.
