keylaunch(1)

📦 version 1.3.9build1, in ubuntu jammy

✨ keylaunch — bestie edition ✨

okay so this is the keylaunch(1) manual page, and honestly? it's giving tiny-but-mighty. let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

keylaunch — a utility for binding commands to a hot key. that's it. that's the whole vibe. you press a key, a command happens. iconic. 👑

🎀 SYNTAX 🎀

keylaunch [no options] <no arguments>

no options. no arguments. she said "i contain multitudes, but not on the command line." 💀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

KeyLaunch is a utility for binding commands to a hot key, fr fr. that's literally the whole job and she does it.

see the example rc file for information — that's where the actual details live, bestie, so go look at it. 📖✨

🦋 FILES 🦋

  • $HOME/.keylaunchrc — your personal rc file lives here. this is the one she reads. 🏠💜

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

to use keylaunch, add it to your .xinitrc:

.xinitrc
okay so like, real talk — the original page just says to add it to your .xinitrc, no full command line given, so we're not making one up. no cap. 🙈

keylaunch reads a user's .keylaunchrc file. so like, .xinitrc starts her up, .keylaunchrc tells her what to do. a whole two-file situationship. 🫶
