Description
I just started using the Wox Launcher, and think it might be my new launcher of choice. I use Rolz.org a lot for rolling dice for RPGs, and figured that a good project for a plugin was to allow the use of the API from within Wox Launcher.

Installation
Either download the plugin package from my site and drag it onto the search screen or install it directly from search by typing

Code: (text)

wpm install Rolz Roller

 

The plugin page can be found at http://www.wox.one/plugin/352.

How to Use
The keyword for the roller is rolz, and it uses the same syntax shown on https://rolz.org/. Click the result to copy the text to the keyboard. A sample query is shown below:

Looks nice and relatively simple.

Reminds me of this more graphically enhanced dice rolling software called Sophie's Dice:

Available on itch.io, Steam, and Google Play.

Yeah... I was just trying to get something that would be quick to reference when I needed a roll rather than going to the full-fledged site or opening an app.  That does look cool though!
