rofi keys - Rofi Key and Mouse bindings
rofi supports overriding of any of it key and mouse binding.
Bindings can be done on the commandline (-{bindingname}):
rofi -show run -kb-accept-entry 'Control+Shift+space'or via the configuration file:
configuration {
kb-accept-entry: "Control+Shift+space";
}The key can be set by its name (see above) or its keycode:
configuration {
kb-accept-entry: "Control+Shift+[65]";
}An easy way to look up keycode is xev(1).
Multiple keys can be specified for an action as a comma separated list:
configuration {
kb-accept-entry: "Control+Shift+space,Return";
}By Default rofi reacts on pressing, to act on the release of all keys
prepend the binding with !:
configuration {
kb-accept-entry: "!Control+Shift+space,Return";
}To unset a binding, pass an empty string.
configuration {
kb-clear-line: "";
