I know there's apple employees lurking out there so feel free to chime
in if this is a ``planned'' feature with something of a medium-to-high
priority.
Is there (or will there be?) a way to bind keys to the commands you
place under the ``Applications'' menu on the quartz window manager?
I'd like to be able to, for example, press F1 and have it run an xterm
-bg black -fg white -sb [...], or press F12
and have it run xload, or emacs, or whatever I choose.
Forgive my ignorance, but is there a way to do this within X11 itself
without relying on the window manager to support this function?
I know there's ways to do this in WindowMaker and a handful of other
window managers - but if I could get away with it using the quartz
window manager that'd be ideal.
Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.
