Technically yes, as this would only require faking a backspace key press for the web browser. However, shortcutd does not currently distinguish between applications and would then send a backspace key in every application.

Yes. Can be already done easily by editing the source, a configuration option for this could be added later.

Re: [feedback request]shortcutd

What keyboard cobinations work with current xorg/maemo and what they do? Is it possible to send keyboard combinations that do not exist on n900 keyboard (alt-tab etc) but actually do something like close current window etc.

Good point of view. You mean like CTRL+BACKSPACE for the dashboard? ;) :D
Sorry, I'm kidding. But you see what I mean? :)

There are only some keycombinations I don't like. Some of them are hard to handle or I have to open the Keyboard only for this shortcut. Even like CTRL+SHIFT+I in the Browser. - The other way could be to improve the browser and provide a button in the UI for this. I know.

At ScummVM this way is for some reasons not possible at the moment. And there are some Shortcuts like CTRL+M, CTRL+Space, CTRL+I, SHIFT+BACKSPACE and SHIFT+ENTER which would be more useful with such a "shortcut dashboard". :rolleyes:

How to find out how many people could find something like this useful?

Re: [feedback request]shortcutd

your app is awesome ! but is there a way to disable the cam shortcut ?

It's possible to send, but they do nothing :)

:D Yeah, I got your point.
We'll see what can be done about that after we get the basic functionality/current features ready first.

Let's wait and see if we get other similar requests :)

Not yet, but there will be.

Re: [feedback request]shortcutd

Loved camkeyd but I don't feel the need to use the proximity sensor so I disabled that in this program.

Great job guys.

Btw, is this always active in the background? Does it take "much" power?

Re: [feedback request]shortcutd

camkey does trigger the switchboard but still start up the camera ... even when the lid is closed.

Any help?

Don't press the camera button fully. Just half-press. (focus)

Re: [feedback request]shortcutd

idea is great and i am sure a lot people will find it useful. personally since the keyboard is out, i dont see how one can use cam keys. so if u have a lot of use with keyboard closed, it makes sense. I love the keyboard shortcuts. browsing this website, spacebar for moving down and shift+spacebar for moving up works really well too.

for dashboard i use ctrl+backspace alot.
