no idea - but this seems to me to be an xte issue - so i would chase this up on
that side. it's possible xte is demanding some form of tty and as it doesn't
get that from e it's very unhappy. it will never get it either.

If I run xte with this command from E it works:

xte 'mousemove 100 100' 'mousedown 1' 'mousemove 200 200' 'mouseup 1'

The cursor is moved as it should. So I assume xte is found in the path.

But the key-command does only work in E if I call it with xterm:

xterm -e xte 'sleep 0.5' 'keydown Control_L' 'key v' 'keyup Control_L' 

The xte command isn't given to the xterm, it's e.g. given to the before
selected OpenOffice window and insert the clipboards data. (OK)

Any idea why it works inside a xterm, but not direct? It's a little
interfering to see a xterm opening each time.

not sure then. e will execute the app. if it is an app (from a .desktop file)
it will snarf the stdout/in, track return code etc. so it fully reports errors
etc. if it's not (just a cmd-line) it will simply spawn it off and forget about
it. replace xte with something like "date > $HOME/test-run-time" and check that
file. you will find it is being run. the rest is either that xte is not in
$PATH (thus provide a full path to it) or xte itself after being executed
aborts before it does anything.

Sure, I tested it also with the GUI. And also with other "standard"
keys not special for a multimedia keyboard. No other results.

you are using the enlightenment_remote commands? have you thought that maybe
those keys (XF86Back for example) don't WORK on your keyboard layout setup and
that's why? have you tried using the gui to set them up? when you use the gui
it will CAPTURE the actual key pressed and thus get it right. e will let u bind
keys even if they have no symbols in the keymap as it will just bind the raw
keycode then. as long as the key produces a key press event the binding will
work and e will execute something (ie what you told it to).

Is there a difference between how E17 keybindings and the "Command
Dialog" run a app? Because there is works.

Other xte command that controls the mouse are working in E17. Perhaps
it's really a problem that E captures the stdin/err/out. Could I
configure E _not_ to capture it?

Or do you've a better idea how to use the some keys on my multimedia
keyboard that control some apps.

I read here about how to configure my Cymotion keyboard for E17, but it
doesn't work (because of the xte problem):

no idea - e just executes the command as given and will redirect stdout/err/in
to itself to capture error logs etc.
