AutoKey Configuration for Ubuntu

This repository contains AutoKey configuration data for Mac OS X keybindings.

Note:

  • Switch Alt and Super key behavior
  • Windows minimize, Open home folder, Alt-Tab and Desktop switching set through system shortcuts

Pre-Requisites

Install AutoKey:

sudo apt install autokey-gtk;

Verify that the configuration directory exists:

stat ~/.config/autokey;

Usage

  1. Navigate to your AutoKey configuration directory
  2. Make a backup of the data directory
  3. Clone this repository into the data directory

This can be achieved using the following shell commands:

set -x;
cd ~/.config/autokey \
  && mv data data.backup.$(date +'%Y%m%d%H%M%S') \
  && git clone git@github.com:glennr/autokey-osx-ify.git data;

Then start AutoKey and you should have the shortcuts applied.

Enjoy!
