NAME¶
kuake<hotkey> - kuake-like hotkey terminal
DESCRIPTION¶
A very primitive quake-console-like extension. It was inspired by a description
of how the programs "kuake" and "yakuake" work: Whenever
the user presses a global accelerator key (by default "F10"), the
terminal will show or hide itself. Another press of the accelerator key will
hide or show it again.
Initially, the window will not be shown when using this extension.
This is useful if you need a single terminal that is not using any desktop space
most of the time but is quickly available at the press of a key.
The accelerator key is grabbed regardless of any modifiers, so this extension
will actually grab a physical key just for this function.
If you want a quake-like animation, tell your window manager to do so (fvwm can
do it).
