Re: The i3 thread

Why are you using bindcode rather than bindsym?  How did you get those key codes?  Have you verified that those are the codes the keys actually generate?  Can you show the relevant xev output?

Because key codes were easier than the xf86 crap.
Xmodemap I think.
That's the numbers xmodemap gave me.
Xev is too much effort, so no.

Suffice it to say after many hours over many days I finally got the hot keys to work. I had to piece together many searches.
