 Hi,

 In the default binds Mod + Tab cycles between the last two used
 applications. You are looking for Mod + j or Mod + k (reverse order).

It depends on what you're used to, I guess. I am used to vi keybinds
and try to configure all programs I use in that way, so these binds
work best for me.

Run an application (like using Alt+F2)

2012-07-28 Thread Javier Garcia
Hi,

is there any key binding to run gmrun?

Javier


Re: Run an application (like using Alt+F2)

2012-07-28 Thread Antonio Santos
Hi again :)

By default, Mod + r triggers a prompt that behaves like gmrun.

If you prefer to use gmrun itself, well this is Awesome and it can be
configured in any way you like! You can create a new keybind in your
rc.lua by adding something like this in the place where the rest of
the keybinds are defined (have a look at the file, it is self
documented):

awful.key({ Mod1 }, r, function() awful.util.spawn('gmrun') end),

That would bind Alt+r to launch gmrun.

Cheers

Re: Alt+tab just switches between two apps

2012-07-28 Thread Matthew Hague

Anyway, do you find more usefull these key bindings? more than the
classical alt-tab? I can not find too much sense on it..

I think the idea behind vi using hjkl for movement is that you don't have to
move your hands away from the home row to reach them.  Alt+tab required a bit
of an awkward stretch/wrist turn on my keyboards -- albeit one that i was so
used to it didn't seem so bad -- so switching to mod+j/k made things noticeably
more comfortable/smooth.  

It also depends on how easy it is to reach your mod key, of course :).  That's
still a bit awkward for me, but less so than alt-tab.

Any key binding to collapse the a menu?

If it has been opened with the mouse, no. If you opened it with Mod+w,
you can use escape to close it.

Render active an application using a key binding

2012-07-28 Thread Javier Garcia
Hi,

I know that i can associate a key binding to open an app (Mod+Enter opens
the terminal).

But, how to render active the app with a key binding?

Should I associate a key binding to the app? or should i open always the
app in a specific tag (in that way i can render active the app using
Mod+1,2,3...) ??

Hi Javier,

I'm looking at my Awesome 3.4.9 files, so forgive me if there are any
differences to your version.

There are three ways to open the app menu: clicking on the launcher in
the top-left, right-clicking on the desktop, or Mod+w.  By default
Mod+w allows keys to be used to navigate the menu, whereas the other
two don't.  But we can change this!

Right-clicking on the desktop is easy to change.  Search for

 root.buttons(awful.util.table.join(
 awful.button({ }, 1, function () mymainmenu:toggle() end),

in your rc.lua and change toggle() to toggle({ keygrabber = true
}).  To make the launcher grab keys as well, we can change this:

 mylauncher = awful.widget.launcher({ image = image(beautiful.awesome_icon),
  menu = mymainmenu })

to this:

 mylauncher = awful.widget.launcher({ image = image(beautiful.awesome_icon),
  command =  })
 mylauncher:buttons(awful.util.table.join(
 mylauncher:buttons(),
 awful.button({ }, 1, function ()
mymainmenu:toggle({ keygrabber = true })
  end)))

Then, right-arrow can be used to open submenus and applications, and
left can go back and close.

Cheers,
Bryan

 http://unagi.mini-dweeb.org/

 Unagi is very minimalistic without fancy effects. The easiest way is
 to install it with the package manager of your distribution. On
 Debian you can install it with

 apt-get install unagi

 then you simply run it in the background

 unagi 

 If you want more effects, you can try xcompmgr.

 BTW: You should always CC the list, then people can search the
 archive if they have the same problem.

RE: Any key binding to collapse the a menu?

Awesome Bryan - Thanks! 

I've updated my rc.lua with it just so that I can simply press escape to
close the menu! Cursor keys work as well, but the escape key was the one I
really wanted ;-)

One minor change though - It worked better for me without the following
line...
 mylauncher:buttons(),

 In whatever theme you're using, it should be specified in the theme.lua

 theme.awesome_icon = theme.theme_dir .. /awesome16.png

Those would need to be modified per application, I think. I think most of
them can be found in /usr/share/icons or /usr/share/applications, along
with maybe ~/.icons and ~/.local/share/. There also might be some other
locations I can't think off the top of my head.
