To be able to use the option to compose letters for example the german Umlaute "ä, ö, ü" or the spanisch "ñ" you have to activate the compose key option in the system settings menu. Once you have defined and activated a key on the keyboard for that specific purpose, you can compose the letters by combining respective or similar symbols with it while pressing the compose key.

Example:
["]+[composeKey] and than [u] => ü
[~]+[composeKey] and than [n] => ñ
[']+ [composeKey] and than [e] => é

How to (re)map keys.
In the case of a #keyboard at hand there are two keys (down arrow and right arrow) that don't work anymore.
Solved this with (re)assigning the arrow up and arrow left keys in combination with the ALT key:
[ArrowUp]+[ALT] = arrow down
[ArrowLeft]+[ALT] = arrow right
The commands in the [Action] box are respectively Down and Right.

#howTo set a keyboard key to turn the screen off.

Creating a shortcut in settings -> shortcuts -> power management -> turn off screen doesn't work correctly.

To solve this create a customized shortcut:
Settings -> custom shortcuts -> EDIT - new -local shortcut - command

Enter as command line:
sleep 1; xset dpms force off

[sleep 1] delays command. This apparently solves the problem.

Hope It works.

#openbox #keybind

my #Moonlander #keybind of the day: the mighty semicolon `;`

i hold down the semicolon `;` key, the layer changes on the left half to one that is configured for one-button taps that send:

- `⌘ + [`and `]`
- `⌘ + ⇧ + [` and `]`

to very quickly cycle panes and tabs in iTerm, web browsers, and, any other application that has a tab bar, really.

as shown i also can control the pointer, wheels, and clicks in the same layer.

_;_ is mighty mighty.
