I3-CONFIG-WIZARD(1) i3 Manual I3-CONFIG-WIZARD(1) NAME i3-config-wizard - creates a keysym based config based on your layout SYNOPSIS i3-config-wizard [-s socket] [-m modifier] [-v] [-h] OPTIONS -s, --socket socket Overwrites the path to the i3 IPC socket. -m, --modifier modifier Generates the configuration file headlessly. Accepts win or alt. -v, --version Display version number and exit. -h, --help Display a short help message and exit. FILES /usr/local/etc/i3/config.keycodes This file contains the default configuration with keycodes. All the bind- code lines will be transformed to bindsym and the user-specified modifier will be used. DESCRIPTION i3-config-wizard is started by i3 in its default config, unless ~/.i3/con- fig exists. i3-config-wizard creates a keysym based i3 config file (based on /usr/local/etc/i3/config.keycodes) in ~/.i3/config. The advantage of using keysyms is that the config file is easy to read, un- derstand and modify. However, if we shipped with a keysym based default config file, the key positions would not be consistent across different keyboard layouts (take for example the homerow for movement). Therefore, we ship with a keycode based default config and let the wizard transform it according to your current keyboard layout.
