devour

Devour hides your current window before launching an external program and unhides it after quitting.
Devour was inspired by
sw
and is a successor to
devour.sh

sudo make install # ReinstallDevour from your file explorer instead of the shell.
Watch my demo and notice how seamless it is compared to devouring from the shell.
Hint: If you are one of those unfortunate souls who uses xdg-open instead of a custom launch script, then go to your ~/.local/share/applications directory and modify the applications you launch from your file explorer like below and enjoy the true devouring experience.
