Default inject mode is now paste (⌘V with full pasteboard snapshot/restore) — terminals and Electron apps drop synthesized unicode key events but all handle paste. --inject-mode type-unicode keeps the old behavior. Hotkey/overlay parts of digimata#4 were skipped; they are superseded by the digimata#7 merge.

Slop warning, vibecoded PR using 5.6 Sol. Feel free to close but I think it can be useful

Third-party keyboards such as Logitech models commonly handle Fn entirely in firmware, so macOS never receives the event Parrot currently requires. This makes the daemon appear to run normally while push-to-talk can never start. The README advertises a hotkey override, but the corresponding CLI option was not implemented.
This adds a checked Push-to-talk key submenu to the menu-bar UI with left/right Option, Command, Control, and Shift alternatives. Selections take effect immediately, persist through UserDefaults, and can also be set with the documented
--hotkeyoption. Left/right modifiers are distinguished by hardware keycode because each pair shares a CGEvent flag, and the Fn-specific doctor check is skipped when Fn is not selected.
