*The GUI above looks garbled because I have a high DPI monitor.*
## Introduction
The official cross-distribution build of checkra1n only contains a CLI and TUI. However, the version available in the [checkra1n APT repository](https://checkra.in/linux) also contains a GTK-based GUI which can be accessed using the `--gui` flag, or the included `checkra1n.desktop` file.
## Other Distributions
First, download the Debian package available at `https://assets.checkra.in/debian/checkra1n_VERSION_amd64.deb` (as of writing, `VERSION` is currently `0.12.2`). Then, extract the `checkra1n` executable from the package, and install the correct shared libraries. Here are the most important ones, and their corresponding package names on Arch Linux:
- libimobiledevice-1.0.so.6 (`libimobiledevice`)
- libirecovery-1.0.so.3 (`libirecovery`)
- libtvcontrol.so (`libtvcontrol`)
- libplist-2.0.so.3 (`libplist`)
- libncurses.so.5 (`ncurses5-compat-libs`)
I found these by running the binary and then finding and installing the package that contained the shared object I was missing.
I also made an AUR package named [`checkra1n-gui`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/checkra1n-gui), which does all this automatically.
## Conclusion
As I expected, there is nothing preventing the checkra1n GUI from working on non Debian-based distributions (as far as I can tell).

title = "Put (edited) in the middle of a message in Discord"

description = "With a bit of trickery using the RLE character (U+202B), you can get the (edited) text on a message to be somewhere other than at the end of the message."
showFullContent = false
+++
## Tutorial
1. Copy the "right-to-left embedding" character (U+202A) to your clipboard.
2. Open editing box of a message
3. Delete all text inside
4. Paste the character
5. Type the text you want on the right of `(edited)`
6. Press space and paste the character
7. Type the text you want on the left of `(edited)`

title = "Text Substitution in Discord using `sed`"
date = "2021-03-25T18:48:15-05:00"
author = "bbaovanc"
tags = ["discord", "discord-tricks"]
keywords = ["discord", "sed", "text", "replacement"]
description = "Discord has (very primitive) support for text replacement using `sed` syntax."
showFullContent = false
+++
## How-to
[Example Video](/blog/media/discord-tricks/sed-text-replacement.mov)
If you send a message using `sed` substitution format (`s/old text/new text`), Discord will execute it on the message you've last sent.
## Caveats
- Regex is not supported
- Global substitution is not supported
