Yeah, I think that a generic keybinding API would be useful. I remember collecting a list of keybinding bugs somewhere due to the fact that there's a bunch of duplicated code that's slightly different. Things like <Super>space works as a keybinding for Open Terminal (handled by gnome-control-center???) but doesn't work for metacity's run-custom-command thingies (or vice versa??). I suppose I could dig up the bugzilla IDs, hang on... Would it make sense to have a single D-Bus service where tomboy, deskbar, metacity, etc. (and don't forget our KDE friends) can just say "notify me on <Alt>F12", or is that just total crack and should we just have a traditionally linked libkeybinder instead? _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
