# arrow2nav

Enable navigation keys on keyboards without PgUp/Dn,Home,End

(such as the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14)

## Why

Navigation keys are useful for scrolling and moving the cursor quickly in

terminals and text editors. Most laptops with compact keyboards will have

function keys instead of dedicated navigation keys, but some laptops forego

them entirely.

This plugin allows the arrow keys to act like navigation keys in combination

with LCTRL.

## Dependencies

- [Interception tools](https://gitlab.com/interception/linux/tools)

## Building

```

git clone https://github.com/jakogut/arrow2nav.git

cd arrow2nav

mkdir build && cd build

cmake ..

make

```

## Execution

`arrow2nav` is an [_Interception Tools_](https://gitlab.com/interception/linux/tools) plugin. A suggested

`udevmon` job configuration is:

```yaml

- JOB: "intercept -g $DEVNODE | arrow2nav | uinput -d $DEVNODE"

  DEVICE:

    EVENTS:

      EV_KEY: [KEY_LEFTCTRL, KEY_UP, KEY_DOWN, KEY_LEFT, KEY_RIGHT]

```
