Disabling specific keys is likely to be something people will want to do,
however, the documentation doesn't emphasize that functionality. Add an example
about disabling keys with the 'noop' keyword to the documentation to make it
easier for users to figure out how to do that.
Closes#359
Switch to hungarian notation to distinguish between timeout and macro variants of
existing actions. The old names are kept for backward compatibility but will
eventually be removed.
toggle2 -> togglem
swap2 -> swapm
overload2 -> overloadt
overload3 -> overloadt2
oneshotm and layerm have also been added for completeness.
This patch reduces the compose sequence size by making use of keysyms a-z.
This is mainly done to improve support for programs with broken XCompose logic
(i.e chrome). A consequence of this is that the user will need to be using
the standard US layout on their display server to make use of unicode support.
Add a new listen command which prints layer state changes in real time. This
makes it possible to write things like custom visual indicators.
E.G
$ keyd listen
Sample output:
+shift
-shift
+layer
-layer
...
Swtich from
<name> = <key>
to
<key> = <name>
and confine keys to a single alias. This is arguably more intuitive
and reduces both config and implementation complexity.
This patch makes simple macros of the form `<mods>-<key>` less noisy by
avoiding the redundant release/depression of modifiers which are already
active. This used to be the default behaviour prior to 2.3.0-rc, but was
changed to accommodate #128 (among other things). In most cases the
additional noise is transparent to the application, but notably breaks
Gnome tab-switching via swap, since Gnome cares about intermediate
modifier state.
