</div>What exactly do you have defined?<br>
<br>
If you have separate keys bound do "MoveRelative" with different<br>
parameters, then this isn't what I want. (I already have W-{h,j,k,l}<br>
bound to DirectionalFocus*). I want one key press to start move (or<br>
resize) mode, and then be able to use hjkl instead of arrow keys to do<br>
the rest (which includes being able to use ctrl/shift to modify the<br>
size of the step). From looking at the code, I'm fairly sure that this isn't<br>
possible without a patch. If it is, then please by all means be a bit<br>
more helpful with your response and post an example.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>You could use a chroot to enter a "move/resize mode". It won't have all the nice features of an interactive move/resize right now though.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The patch as it is won't work because it assumes a qwerty keyboard layout, and that's a serious issue. I would take a patch to add configurable bindings for directions, which could control both the menu and move/resize operations.</div>
