If have it like this:

    table.insert(globalkeys, key({ modkey }, "q", function()
        --awful.util.spawn("/home/yogan/bin/hammerlock-simple.sh")
        awful.util.spawn("xtrlock")
    end))

How do I bind to a key release? What is the nil in your key doing? It
tried to put that in my binding, but it did not work. (Actually, it made
all my other keybindings not work anymore after I have pressed modkey+q.)


Greetings,
Frank
