How to switch between virtual desktops by keyboard?
How to switch between virtual desktops by keyboard?
I wonder if I could switch between virtual keyboards by keyboard or not. If there is no hotkey for it, maybe setting one could be possible?
I'm using Bionicpup64 8.0

2) add these lines under <!-- Keybindings -->
<Key mask="CS" key="Right">rdesktop</Key>
<Key mask="CS" key="Left">ldesktop</Key>
<Key mask="CS" key="#">desktop#</Key>
3) restartwm
now pressing Ctrl-Shift+? should work.

williams2 is absolutely correct. Funny thing is that when you refer to a virtual desktop in a script, the count starts at 0, not 1.
I would also recommend reading the good'ol GNU/Linux Command-Line Tools Summary at the old The Linux Documentation Project. Even seasoned Linux users have some aha-experiences there!
Just remember that some of the commands are not available in BusyBox, which is the lightweight version used in most Puppys, instead of the full Linux utilities.

Indeed; seconded. Summat new I've learnt today..!number77 wrote:Nice one williams2. Thanks.williams2 wrote:I think the default hotkeys to switch the jwm virtual desktops are:
alt+1
alt+2
alt+3
etc
(Although I'm curious as to why this works with the 'main' number keys at the top of the keyboard, yet not with the number pad to the right. After all, these reference the exact same key-codes, don't they?)
