Hi Mark,

synclient touchpadoff=1  ## turns off the touchpad
synclient touchpadoff=0  ## turns on the touchpad

You can make aliases for these commands or bind them to some hotkey combination.

Best regards
Nio

I would like the shortcuts better than snapping. (I turn off snapping, I
don't like it at all. I must be unusual because it seems to be the
default in other distros.).

Is there a listing of available shortcuts? I know the info can be seen
in ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml . But, I'm thinking new users
(Windows users specifically) who might comprehend it the info was more
available like a help file(?).

I'd like to see a shortcut for disabling/enabling the laptop touchpad. I
wrote a couple shell scripts to do that.[1] One toggles it on/off and is
bound to a keyboard shortcut. I call the other script from .profile to
toggle the touchpad off by default.

(A "touchpad-indcator" package exists. But, I don't need that much
fancy'ness and overhead.).

[1] The scripts do the following:
 xinput list   (to get the touchpad's id-number)
xinput set-prop {id-number} "Device Enabled" 0   (or 1).

    Hi,

    I like the short-cut ALT+x keypress which alternately maximises the
    window or returns it to its previous size.

    However, I have noted with things like a terminal emulator (in which
    I use bash) or emacs, quite often I end up manually making their
    windows either as tall as possible or wide as possible.

    Would other people find such shortcuts useful? Do they already exist?

    BW,
