ObKey development was dead.
it was reborn. and is sleeping again.
Actually, i no more use OpenBox since 2019.
If you use OpenBox and want to ensure ObKey still working well, feel free to grab the project
and notify in Issues you are improving it (there may have technical question you can ask).
Version 1.3
is released ! Obkey support searching (related to the command) and sorting.
Some standard keybindings are now implemented:
- copy
Control-c
- paste
Control-v
- duplicate
Control-d
- save
Control-s
- reload file
Control-z
- quit
Control-s
- delete
Delete
This is really not perfect and i wished to make it more accessible :
- To select an item, you can just press on
up
anddown
arrows, or start to search a pattern describing an existing action - You can change the keybind by moving to the keybind field by pressing
right
arrow andspace
- You can focused to all action fields with tab keys
- You'll probably use a mouse to setup keybindings easily and it is sad

openbox is a very customizable Window Manager.
Its custom file is ~/.config/openbox/rc.xml

For configuring it from GUI, there's ObConf and there's ObKey !
