Welcome to i3,
|
||||
This message is simply intended to introduce you to the basics of i3 with it's default configuration.
|
||||
For further details have a look at the man page or the User's Guide which you can find at:
|
||||
1.) Welcome to i3!
|
||||
|
||||
This message provides you with an overview of the default keybindings to use i3.
|
||||
Please also make sure to have a look at the man page and the user's guide:
|
||||
http://i3.zekjur.net/docs/userguide.html
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration Files
|
||||
/etc/i3/config is the default configuration
|
||||
~/.i3/config is your configuration, it's recommended to copy the default one to this file and modify it.
|
||||
2.) Configuration Files
|
||||
|
||||
/etc/i3/config is the default configuration. It is recommended to copy it and
|
||||
afterwards edit it to suit your needs (you can especially disable this message):
|
||||
|
||||
cp /etc/i3/config ~/.i3/config
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Keybindings for the first steps
|
||||
The following explanation is related to the QWERTY layout, but as the default configuration uses
|
||||
keycodes instead of keysymbols for binding, they're still the same keys even with another layout.
|
||||
The Mod1 key is usually bound to the Alt key at your keyboard.
|
||||
3.) Keybindings
|
||||
|
||||
Mod1+Enter opens a terminal which is by default urxvt
|
||||
The following explanation is related to the QWERTY layout, but as the default
|
||||
configuration uses keycodes instead of keysymbols for binding, you still have
|
||||
to press the same keys, regardless of your keyboard layout.
|
||||
|
||||
Mod1+v starts dmenu
|
||||
The Mod1 key is usually bound to the "Alt" key on your keyboard.
|
||||
|
||||
The directional keys are by default j(left), k(down), l(up) and ;(right).
|
||||
Mod1+Enter opens a terminal emulator
|
||||
Mod1+v starts dmenu (an application launcher)
|
||||
|
||||
The directional keys are j(left), k(down), l(up) and ;(right). You can also use
|
||||
the arrow keys on your keyboard, if you prefer them.
|
||||
|
||||
Mod1+<directional key> moves the focus to the window in the given direction
|
||||
|
