Thank you Kim. I'll have to think long and hard about what keys I want to bind this to... But now that I know the solution is "wop * (move/size) kbd" It shall be done. Unless... > Similar entries could of course be added to e.g. winops_size.menu if you > want to select it from a menu, but IMO that kind of goes against the > principle of wanting to use the keyboard :) Yes and no. I like to use keyboard methods (not because I'm all that good at memorizing commands and syntax, But because my mouse skills "stink" So I always try to set up a FEW multi purpose shortcuts rather than several single use ones. For example once I had a keyboard shortcut "*_that_I_can_remember_*" set for the winops menu I quickly disabled single purpose shortcuts to close, kill, minimize (err I guess that's iconify), and maximize a window. This is not only because I'll forget the ones I don't use, but also because the menu gives me the chance to think if I really wanted to do this or did I just fat finger something... At least with e16 I can control the menu contents. like for example moving the winops functions I personally use only rarely to winops|miscellaneous And now that I know how, add the resize and move options I've been missing. I'm not so sure I can do that with e17... So if I may have to memorize a couple of bindings their, I may as well enable them here as well, to make switching back and forth between e16 & e17 as painless as possible. Between the two however, I think I LIKE e16 best. Here's hoping it stays a viable WM for a real long time. -- | ~^~ ~^~ | <*> <*> Joe (theWordy) Philbrook | ^ J(tWdy)P | \___/ <<jtw...@ttlc.net>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
