Hi there,
I am trying to create 2 types of keyboard shortcuts (on my iMac with Leopard):
- shortcuts for the Terminal, Gedit or Firefox
- shortcuts to open applications with wine (basically running the command "wine cd .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/The-Program-That-I-Want"
For the first kind of shortcut, I have tried to do it via the System Preferences:
> Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts > Add (+)
and then:
- Firefox, with the shortcut shift+cmd+F
- Gedit, with the shortcut shift+cmd+G
- Terminal, with the shortcut shift+cmd+T
Those here is my problem: when done with this, I close the window and when trying those shortcuts nothing happens.
I tried with other combinations lik cmd+F/G/T (F for firefox, G for gedit etc.) or shift+cmd+F/G/T or shift+alt+F/G/T or shift+ctrl+F/G/T, same thing, no reaction.
I don't know how to "troubleshoot" this further and how to have this working so I am asking.
Is there a way to also create shortcuts for programs running via wine?
Using Debian as well, I was wondering if there were something like Metacity, in which you can put the command to execute when a keyboard shortcut is hit.
I would like to specify that I am looking for a solution without a 3rd party program (of course, if possible).
