Is there a way to re-insert the original keystroke as an X event for the currently focused client in response to a keybinding?
Basically I want to do a keybindings along these lines:
((controlMask, xK_t), submap . M.fromList $ [ ((0, xK_r), whatever) , ((0, xK_f), whatever) ... , ((0, xK_t), <re-send the original keystroke to the focused client>) ])
so that I essentially have a "prefix" key of C-t for all my rarely used xmonad commands, but if I need to actually send a C-t to the client I can still do so by pressing C-t twice.
(I've tried searching around for an answer to this but my Google-fu seems to be lacking.)
See the "Ratpoison key emulation" thread: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/xmonad/2008-July/005954.html
Cheers,
Thanks for that link. Looks very promising, but I can't for the life of
me figure out where to get setKeyEvent from.
A search suggests that it should be in Graphics.X11.Xlib.Extras, but it
doesn't seem to be exported from there (I have the 1.4.2 version of the
X11 module installed).
Cheers,
