Where Is the ToFi Config File?
ToFi reads a plain config file from the tofi config folder. Prompt text, fonts, and drun matching live there.
Last updated
ToFi keeps a single text config under the XDG config home with one option per line. Prompt, fonts, colors, matching modes, and drun cache behavior all live there. Flags at launch override file values for one off runs.
The file is optional with sane Wayland defaults, so minimal installs skip it entirely. Drun mode caches desktop entries separately, which explains first launch delays on big app menus. History selection persists between runs. Drun ordering learns from launch counts between sessions.
Where ToFi stores this, by platform
/home/<username>/.config/tofi/config
Main config with one option per line. Prompt, fonts, and matching modes. Exact keys may vary by release.
