Configuring window manager key bindings

About window manager functions

Window manager functions are a component of every section of the window manager configuration files. The system-wide and local configuration files use window manager functions to define the behavior of keys, mouse buttons, and menu panes.

You configure key bindings by associating each key press sequence with at least one window manager function. For example, if you bind Ctrl<Key>Space to a client menu with the f.menu function, the client menu posts each time you press the <Ctrl><Space> keys simultaneously. This key binding definition would look like this:

   Keys  bindings_set_name
   {
                  .	
       Ctrl<Key>Space  window     f.menu client_menu
                  .
                  .
   }
