[e-users] New user question: binding stuff
Michael Heerdegen
I consider switching from openbox to enlightenment. I tried e17 on
Debian wheezy.
I like that I have complete control over all key bindings. However, if
I hit Alt-Control-g, the screen is blanked, whereby the mouse pointer
stays visible. I don't see that binding in the input preferences
dialog. Where does that binding come from - can it be deactivated?
Are there other bindings that are not visible in the preferences dialog?
Second question: is it possible to achieve that the mouse wheel on the
title bar of a window moves that window to the previous/next
virtual desktop? No action context of "To next desktop"/ "To previous
desktop" works for me. I thought "Border" would do it, but that
establishes the binding for the whole window including contents.

that is actually configurable... BUT there is no gui for it. it's part of the
signal bindings...

Works for me, thanks!

Ok, I guess I had to change "~/.e/e/config/standard/e.cfg". But it
seems to be compiled. How can it be done?
Many thanks,
Michael

(decode e.cfg to e.src)
$ eet -d e.cfg config e.src
(modify/save it)
$ vi e.src
(encode e.src into e.cfg)
$ eet -e e.cfg config e.src 1
Thanks.

oh you spoiled my fun :( i wanted him to try deduce it him/herself. i wanted to
see if someone could deduce how to do it if pointed at the tool that can do
it. :) there goes my social experiment :(

I was tempted to reply with the commands and then thought that maybe there
is a command like
eet --help
Turns out...there is :)

Ok, that looks good, thanks (I had to install the package "libeet-bin"
in Debian to install the eet binary, btw).
This was my original question

So, now I see this in e.src:
group "E_Config_Binding_Wheel" struct {
value "context" int: 2;
value "direction" int: 0;
value "z" int: 1;
value "modifiers" int: 2;
value "any_mod" uchar: 0;
value "action" string: "window_desk_move_by";
value "params" string: "1 0";
}
group "E_Config_Binding_Wheel" struct {
value "context" int: 2;
value "direction" int: 0;
value "z" int: -1;
value "modifiers" int: 2;
value "any_mod" uchar: 0;
value "action" string: "window_desk_move_by";
value "params" string: "-1 0";
}
which reflect my bindings of Control + Mouse-wheel on a window to move to
other desktops.
Are these the right structs to modify to limit the impact to the window
titles, or do I have to replace it with something different?
(Sorry to ask so many dumb questions. Please tell me if there is any
documentation I missed.)
Thanks again,
Michael

eet
by itself prints help. no need even for --help or -help or -h :)

there is no documentation :) this stuff isnt meant to be played with except for
developers and hard-core nerds. those ppl can read the source. :) you want the
signal bindings. mouse bindings already have a gui.

I had found the man page before reading his message (yes, there is one
in Debian), and successfully extracted the data. Did I pass, or do I
need to repeat?
Just fun... I appreciate your help.

aaah cool. so pointer did work! awesome! :) so eet as a tool (with
manual/--help output) isnt that mysterious - ie its able to be figured out by a
sufficiently smart person. :)
