Hello everybody, I am trying to make use of gnome keybindings to be able to quick-launch various programs. As the combinations like <Ctrl><Alt>X are a bit overwhelming (and besides might be reserved combinations in applications), I want to be able to use the Windows ("Super") key and launch like <Super>e (for Evolution), <Super>f (for Firefox) etc. What I DID manage to do is to turn this Super key into a modifier using xmodmap: shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lock Caps_Lock (0x42) control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x6d) mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_L (0x7d) mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4 Meta_L (0x73), Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80), Meta_L (0x9c) mod5 Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c) And now "Gnome Keyboard Shortcuts" shows my desired combinations like <Mod4>t, <Mod4>f etc... The problem is that only gnome-terminal works via <Mod4>t (or whatever) :-( And another question: is it possible to simulate the windows-behaviour of the Super-key? E.g. when only this key alone is pressed and released, the startup menu comes up. But simultaneously it can also be used as a modifier (for example, to call "Run" dialog via <Super>r)??? Any ideas?
