Lib.rs

Restarts the computer to windows from Linux. The next boot will be to the default OS again. The first run will ask for sudo, after that it can run without sudo. Copy into your path at .local/bin to restart to windows with 4 keystrokes.

The program will crash/halts if there is no windows bootloader or if there are multiple.

Installing

You can either download the binary, it should work on any Linux system. Or install from source on crates.io, recommended if you have cargo installed

• Using cargo and crates.io use: cargo +nightly install rbtw
• Download the latest binary from https://github.com/dvdsk/rbtw/releases and place it somewhere in your path. For example .local/bin or for a system-wide install /usr/bin/chmod.

Alternative

you can use the shell script:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
bootnext=$(efibootmgr | grep Windows | cut -c 5-8)
sudo efibootmgr --bootnext $bootnext
reboot 

This will however, need a sudo password on each run. You can set the SetUID bit for efibootmgr and remove the sudo call to get around this.
