4 .TH BBKEYS 1 "January 12, 2002" "bbtools" bbkeys
6 bbkeys \- a general XWindow keygrabber
13 \fBbbkeys\fR is the keygrabber for the blackbox window manager. \fBbbkeys\fR
14 handles all keybindings and keyboard shortcuts for blackbox. It uses
15 blackbox's Image classes for rendering its look and feel so that \fBbbkeys\fR
16 will render itself to match whatever blackbox style is used. It is highly
17 configurable either via the \fIbbconf\fR GUI utility or the (now deprecated)
18 \fIbbkeysconf\fR GUI utility or by hand-editting bbkeys's config file.
21 On startup, \fBbbkeys\fR reads \fI$HOME/.bbkeysrc\fR, which you can edit by
22 hand or through \fIbbconf\fR or \fIbbkeysconf\fR. This is now configurable
23 through a command-line switch as show in OPTIONS.
26 A summary of the options supported by \fBbbkeys\fR is included below.
