## Description

*sxhkd* is an X daemon that reacts to input events by executing commands.

Its configuration file is a series of bindings that define the associations between the input events and the commands.

The format of the configuration file supports a simple notation for mapping multiple shortcuts to multiple commands in parallel.

## Example Bindings

	XF86Audio{Prev,Next}

		mpc -q {prev,next}

	@XF86LaunchA

		scrot -s -e 'image_viewer $f'

	super + shift + equal

		sxiv -rt "$HOME/image"

	XF86LaunchB

		xdotool selectwindow | xsel -bi

	super + {h,j,k,l}

		bspc node -f {west,south,north,east}

	super + alt + {0-9}

		mpc -q seek {0-9}0%

	super + {alt,ctrl,alt + ctrl} + XF86Eject

		sudo systemctl {suspend,reboot,poweroff}

	super + {_,shift + }{h,j,k,l}

		bspc node -{f,s} {west,south,north,east}

	{_,shift + ,super + }XF86MonBrightness{Down,Up}

		bright {-1,-10,min,+1,+10,max}

	super + o ; {e,w,m}

		{gvim,firefox,thunderbird}

	super + alt + control + {h,j,k,l} ; {0-9}

		bspc node @{west,south,north,east} -r 0.{0-9}

	super + alt + p

		bspc config focus_follows_pointer {true,false}

	# Smart resize, will grow or shrink depending on location.

	# Will always grow for floating nodes.

	super + ctrl + alt + {Left,Down,Up,Right}

	  n=10; \

	  { d1=left;   d2=right;  dx=-$n; dy=0;   \

	  , d1=bottom; d2=top;    dx=0;   dy=$n;  \

	  , d1=top;    d2=bottom; dx=0;   dy=-$n; \

	  , d1=right;  d2=left;   dx=$n;  dy=0;   \

	  } \

	  bspc node --resize $d1 $dx $dy || bspc node --resize $d2 $dx $dy
