# LeftHK LeftHK - A hotkey daemon written in Rust *THIS IS BETA SOFTWARE* The configuration file should be created in ~/.config/lefthk/ and called config.ron. If the configuration file is not created the program will exit. Example config: ```ron #![enable(implicit_some)] Config( default_modifier: ["Mod4", "Shift"], keybinds: [ Keybind( command: Execute("st -e htop"), key: Key("x"), ), Keybind( command: Executes(["st -e htop", "st -e bpytop"]), key: Keys(["x", "m"]), ), Keybind( command: Chord([ Keybind( command: Execute("st -e htop"), modifier: ["Mod4"], key: Key("c"), ), ]), modifier: ["Mod4"], key: Key("c"), ), ] ) ``` Reload, Kill, Chord, and ExitChord are the only internal commands. To run a normal command you need to call Execute or Executes, with the added value or values of the command. A chord can accept any amount and type of extra keybinds, which when started blocks previous keybinds and will exit once a sub-keybind is executed. A Chord will take the ExitChord set within it first, then if not set it will take the ExitChord from its parent (e.g. a Chord within a Chord will take the ExitChord from the previous Chord). There is a pipe which receives commands through $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/lefthk/commands.pipe, currently only accepts Reload and Kill.
