Keyboard Shortcuts

Channel: xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts

This channel is special, and should only be used through the GUI, since it reads keyboard characters from the keyboard layout like <Shift> and <Alt>.

It contains a string array in the property /providers that lists the group names. Each group contains a serie of default and custom shortcuts in the properties /<group-name>/default/<shortcut> and /<group-name>/custom/<shortcut>. The property value of each shortcut is respectively the command to execute and the name of the window manager action.

FIXME what is /<group-name>/custom/override useful for?
