You need to look into enlightenment_remote in e17. It has got command line logout and keybinding settings. If you use zsh, then put the following lines in your ~/.zshrc (I don't know if there is an equivalent setting for bash shell): # Completion for enlightenment_remote compdef _gnu_generic enlightenment_remote The above will provide you with basic command completion of enlightenment_remote's options :) Once you have setup your key, mouse, etc bindings you can use this script to store them as a bash executable file (a lot of other settings are also stored): http://ppurka.googlepages.com/e17_setup.sh HTH ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
