The full answer would be MUCH, MUCH, MUCH longer, buut this is a good start. If you want modes you could also use i3wm and its built-in mode function.įor grabbing key names (keysyms) for your configs you'll need to use a tool called xev. The above answer is Desktop Environment / Window Manager agnostic. IT IS A MASSIVE PITA to configure everything.
If you want to use mouse keys you could also configure sxkhd to trigger xdotool commands. Then you use sxkhd for mapping Ctrl + Shift + \ for triggering an action. You can for instance use xcape to map Left Shift to act as Ctrl + Shift + \ when pressed and released on its own while preserving Shift functionality when you hold the key. sxkhd for triggering scripts /opening apps / triggering other keys and for making modes.xcape can deal with combinations of keys too while Xmodmap alone can't do this. xcape to configure modifier keys to act as other keys when pressed and released on their own.Example: shift + altgr by default produces ÷, but you can change it for displaying ¿. xmodmap for changing modifiers (super, alt, ctrl, etc) and for overriding key definitions from setxkbmap.It is import to set this before messing with xmodmap. setxkbmap for setting a non US layout or an US variant, assuming you have an alternative keyboard layout.
It is a good KE alternative but not alone, you'll need to use it together with some other tools: setxkbmap, xmodmap and xcape.
For Wayland unfortunatelly I don't know any alternatives or if it's possible at wall.
