[gentoo-user] ksuperkey

[András Csányi]

Hi All,

I would like to ask the kde team whether they know the ksuperkey
application or not. Would it be possible to have in the portage tree?

You can find further information here:
http://blog.hanschen.org/2012/10/17/open-application-launcher-with-super-key/

Btw, not an rocket science to install it, and I did to myself, but it
is useful, I think.

Thanks in advance!

András

Better file a bug in BGO to request adding this software in the tree and 
volunteer your ebuild for it.

Hi,

ksuperkey is a fork of xcape, which is available in portage as 
x11-misc/xcape. I am not familiar with the differences between the two, 
but perhaps it may meet your needs.

Best regards,
Michael

Yes, it is. The difference is that ksuperkey make a remap where the
KDE menu comes up if the user hit Windows (Meta) key like in Win7 or
Ubuntu. To be honest, I really missed this function in KDE. In my job
I use Win7 and I get used to that I hit Windows key and I start to
type the software name and hit enter and... here is it! Alt+F1 is
totally different feeling.
