h1. Grabs\015\012\015\012{{>toc}}\015\012\015\012[[Grabs]] are the button/keyboard mappings in [[subtle]]. Every button/keyboard combination can be a [[Grabs|grab]]. \015\012\015\012Genereally there exist three different [[Grabs|grabs]] types:\015\012# Predefined grabs\015\012# Grabs which call a "Ruby":http://www.ruby-lang.org block\015\012# Grabs that exec a program\015\012\015\012Remember that the config is a complete "Ruby":http://www.ruby-lang.org file.\015\012\015\012The syntax of the config can be checked with: *subtle -k* or *subtle -k -c* @/path/to/config@\015\012\015\012h2. Keys\015\012\015\012The best resource for getting the correct key strings is probably your @/usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h@, but to make life easier here are some infos about it:\015\012\015\012* Numbers and letters keep their names, so *a* is *a* and *0* is *0*\015\012* Keypad keys need *KP_* as prefix, so *KP_1* is *1* on the keypad\015\012* Modifier keys have special meaning (Alt, Control, Meta, Shift, Super)\015\012* Keys usually have meaningful english names\015\012\015\012+Other keys+:\015\012* *Space*\015\012* *Tab*\015\012* *Enter* / *Return*\015\012* *F1* - *F12*\015\012* *Left*, *Down*, *Up*, *Right*\015\012* *Next*, *Prior*\015\012* *Page_Up*, *Page_Down*\015\012* *Home*, *End*\015\012* *Insert*, *Delete*\015\012* *Add*, *Subtract*, *Multiply*, *Divide*, *Equal*\015\012* *Decimal*\015\012* *Num_Lock*\015\012\015\012h2. Chains\015\012\015\012[[Grabs|Grab]] chains are the combination of one or more modifiers and a key/button. The following two lists show the modifier/buttons that are available:\015\012\015\012+Modifier keys+:\015\012* A = Alt key\015\012* C = Control key\015\012* M = Meta key\015\012* S = Shift key\015\012* W = Super (Windows key)\015\012\015\012+Mouse buttons+:\015\012* B1 = Button1 (Left mouse button)\015\012* B2 = Button2 (Middle mouse button)\015\012* B3 = Button3 (Right mouse button)\015\012* B4 = Button4\015\012* B5 = Button5\015\012\015\012+Example+:\015\012<pre><code class="ruby">\015\012"S-B1"    => WindowMove\015\012"A-space" => lambda { |c| c.toggle_float }\015\012"A-v"     => lambda { puts version }\015\012"W-F1"    => "xterm -sb"\015\012</code></pre>\015\012\015\012h2.
