keybinder is a library for registering global keyboard shortcuts. Keybinder works with GTK-based applications using the X Window System.
The library contains:
- A C library,
libkeybinder
- Lua bindings,
lua-keybinder
- Python bindings,
python-keybinder
- An
examples
directory with programs in C, Lua, Python and Vala.
The option --enable-gtk=gtk3
can be used to compile libkeybinder
against GTK+ 3.0. The default is --enable-gtk=gtk2
. The python
bindings do not work with GTK 3.
If you don't have the neccessary dependencies, and don't want to build
the python bindings, you have to explicitly disable them using the
--disable-python
option with configure.
It is possible you need to tell configure where Lua includes are to be found using (adjusting the path appropriately):
./configure CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/lua5.1
If you want to compile with reduced library linking, configure using:
CC="cc -Wl,--as-needed" ./configure
This library originates in Tomboy and has been widely reused without having a separate release. This package has taken the python bindings from the Deskbar Applet project, and broken it out to a standalone project. The library was subsequently rewritten in major parts.
The module is licenced under the GNU General Public License v2 (or at your option, any later version), see the included file COPYING for details.
