Maybe you haven't noticed that KHotkeys is painfully slow to use for more than one setting. Or that it cannot set several dozen Keycombos at once. Xbindkeys has the beauty of a text based config. Which means one could introduce dozens of keycombos before X even starts. Once its running they are in place. > However, Yakuake is a little more than a hot key as the terminal is > always running, the hotkey only makes it appear and disappear. Oh, I see, yes different. but really my comments were not aimed at Yakuaka so much as at the joy of doing things with key combos. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
