[SOLVED] Fluxbox hotkeys and starting from a particular filepath
by tpprynn from LinuxQuestions.org on (#59C2Y)
I have Debian 10 set up on three computers and use hotkeys for ten or so programs and functions. I've installed the Firefox derivative Waterfox in /opt/ and would like to add this to /home/me/.fluxbox/keys, with /opt/waterfox/waterfox to be triggered with Mod4 and w.
What would be the form for this in the keys file please? If it can't be done this way then is there a way round this?
Thanks.
Edit: Pardon me, I've been a bit slow possibly.
I created a symlink in /bin leading to the necessary file and then added the line to keys with the usual form. If someone needs to know what I mean, I wrote
sudo ln -s /opt/waterfox/waterfox /bin/waterfox
in the terminal and
Mod4 w :ExecCommand waterfox
in keys and restarted Fluxbox.
