Version Information
swhkd -V
)swhkd 1.3.0-dev
Expected behavior
sxhkd distinguishes between modifiers and keysyms with the following general syntax:
It is therefore impossible to trigger commands on modifiers without keysyms:
Instead, the keysm equivalent
super
keysSuper_L
andSuper_R
must be used:Unfortunately, after reading the entire swhkd documentation and looking at every currently existing issue, I am unable to find a way to use the
super
key as a keysym in swhkd:Although other special keys can be used like this, the
super
key is not one of them.The reason I would like to use the
super
key as a keysym, is to enter modes with it. Without this functionality, I would be forced to resort to appending an arbitrary keysym as a workaround, which undermines the numerous ergonomic advantages of key chords and modes.Since I don't know how complex or time-consuming this implementation might be, there is no need to feel rushed. But do keep in mind that this feature would bring immeasurable value towards fostering an ergonomic working environment.
