The highest honor is giving the program a keybind

[-] drew_belloc@programming.dev 20 points 1 year ago

Having on taskbar already give it a keybind on most cases, i quickly open my "work" apps with super + (3..5)

[-] Cysioland@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 1 year ago

My equivalent of autorun is just me pressing Super + 3,4,5,6

[-] ZoopZeZoop@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Super?

Edit: Nevermind. Google answered. It's the Windows key, at least for a Windows computer.

[-] drew_belloc@programming.dev 9 points 1 year ago

Unless you're on windows it doesn't make sense to call it "windows key" so on linux we call it super or meta key most of the time

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

But its a picture of a window.

No, mine have "win" on it, and i cry everyday on my bath because of that. One day i will buy a penguin key... one day...

Fuck me, that's a tip and a half! I love keyboard shortcuts!

[-] Knusper@feddit.de 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Super+F -> Firefox
Super+R -> Terminal
Super+E -> File Manager
Super+X -> Note-taking program

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Holy shit why did I never do this before.

I tried Linux and all the keybinding was a lot of fun, I gotta do it more with windows. I built my own specialized keyboard for inputting chords when I'm writing lyric sheets and I set CTRL+Tab as the keybind to switch between that and QWERTY.

[-] Knusper@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

I do composing, too, and I've written my fair share of shoddy scripts to automate tasks, but changing up the whole keyboard layout for a task, that's the sort of madness I aspire to. 🙃

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I actually think this is slightly out of date, I combined Aug and dim into its own key with Shift for Alt, and maybe for flat/sharp, too?

[-] flashgnash@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

T is terminal for me, R would be to just run a single command in my top bar or something

[-] Knusper@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I had it on Super+T at first, too, but I have the command/application/everything runner bound to Super+Esc and I open a lot of terminal windows throughout the day, so I re-bound it to Super+R just because it's slightly easier to reach.

[-] Querk@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 year ago

That's spoiling at that point

[-] Ozzy@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Task manager with my mouse keybind 🤤

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I pin things on the taskbar if it'll help me make an offensive word. Adobe and Microsoft app icons really help open up the Scrabble board.

[-] nottheengineer@feddit.de 23 points 1 year ago

This is nothing compared to echo "alias np=new_program" >> ~/.zshrc

[-] al177@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

"map <F3> :!new_program" >> ~/.vimrc

[-] nx2@feddit.de 8 points 1 year ago

Wait till you hear about a direct launch hotkey in your window manager

[-] nottheengineer@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

Window manager? I use tmux directly on the tty, that way there's much less that can break.

[-] andrew@lemmy.stuart.fun 6 points 1 year ago

That's nothing, I use a magnetized needle and a steady hand.

[-] TechieDamien@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Pffsh, that's baby mode, I use butterflies by releasing them at just the right time to cause the air currents to change just right to cause a solar ray to pass through the atmosphere and flip the bit I want to flip. It is a bit trickier with error correcting memory...

[-] Ozzy@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

That's just the nerd version

[-] doingthestuff@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

With a 4k monitor and small icons you can fit tons on your taskbar. It's how I roll and it's no honor. I don't pin games there though, that's what steam is for. Steam isn't even on my taskbar, it's in the system tray/active notification spot in the corner.

[-] kamen@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

The first ten are still somewhat more important since you can access them via Win+1, Win+2 and so on.

[-] vox@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

you have to launch it in order for it to appear there tho

[-] Sylvartas@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Bold of you to assume that Steam isn't one of the select few softwares that I actually allow to run on startup

(Personally I still pinned it though because that way, its icon is always in the same place in my taskbar)

[-] I_Miss_Daniel@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

shell:startup if it's particularly useful.
