== FILES

=== /etc/i3/config.keycodes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This file contains the default configuration with keycodes. All the bindcode
|
|
|
|
|
lines will be transformed to bindsym and the user-specified modifier will be
|
|
|
|
|
used.

|
== DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
i3-config-wizard is started by i3 in its default config, unless ~/.i3/config
|
|
|
|
|
exists. i3-config-wizard creates a keysym based i3 config file (based on
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/i3/config.keycodes) in ~/.i3/config.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The advantage of using keysyms is that the config file is easy to read,
|
|
|
|
|
understand and modify. However, if we shipped with a keysym based default
|
|
|
|
|
config file, the key positions would not be consistent across different
|
|
|
|
|
keyboard layouts (take for example the homerow for movement). Therefore, we
|
|
|
|
|
ship with a keycode based default config and let the wizard transform it
|
|
|
|
|
according to your current keyboard layout.
