Comment on Safari Bug in JavaScript Popup Calendar by Matt Kruse by Anonymous

That’s probably a result of a CSS conflict with another element. I recommend switching to the jQuery UI for better UI elements that are maintained.

Comment on Using XBindKeys on Ubuntu Linux to Remap Key Commands by Dave Kimble

The better way: AutoKey(GTK)
Working straight away.

I am another Windows escapee who has come to rely on AutoHotKey.
I also found Xbindkeys-config absolutely unintelligible – why couldn’t it just have two fields, one where you press the hotkey you want, and the other either put a command or “text” ?

The string method doesn’t work for me, the simple launch of Firefox does.

>Now I just have to find an easy way to reload my xbindkeysrc config file when I make changes. Right now I’m killing the process and launching it again.

Obviously xbindkeys-config ought to have a Reload Script button, just like AutoHotKey does. Is that what the Load button does ? Apparently not.

There’s gotta be a better way.

Thank you very much indeed for this tutorial.
But I have got a question. I wanted to remap my shutdown / sleep mode keys so that they could work as they are, because the system doesn’t react at all while I push on them.
I’ve made the file using “sudo xbindkeys-config” and this is what I’ve got:

#Shutdown
“shutdown -h 0″
m:0×0 + c:124
XF86PowerOff

#Hibernate
“hibernate”
m:0×0 + c:150
XF86Sleep

But still, when I press “Run Action” in XBindKeys Config everything is okay. My Ubuntu hibernates and shuts down. And if I just press these buttons, they don’t work. I guess I need to have “root” access here or what’s wrong?

Comment on New TypeMatrix 2030 Ergonomic Keyboard by Jibarito32

I own a 2030 and absolutely love it. I didn’t know how to type QWERTY that well so I challenged myself to learn Dvorak. I’m typing a lot faster with more efficient strokes as well. I’m glade that I invested time in money into this product. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to improve their typing or is looking for a nice keyboard.

Yes I think AutoHotKey for windows is absolutely amazing and I thought it was odd that there isn’t anything really like it on Ubuntu. But maybe that’s because you can do so much just from the command line, which leads to writing your own scripts (i.e. python or perl)

First of all, thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I’m also making the move to Ubuntu from Windows, and I was an extremely heavy user of AutoHotKey.

The xbindkeys program, along with its companion xbindkeys-config, was exactly what I was looking for. Personally, I found xdotool easier to use as the program for typing in the virtual keystrokes, and it allowed me to activate specific windows as well.

Unfortunately, all my keymappings are now global whereas in AutoHotKey they were declared per-program, but for now this is the best replacement I’ve found so far. I tried AutoKey for about a day and found it to be very buggy in Ubuntu 11.04.
