Title. Basically, “if a street fighter gamer and a linux tryhard had a baby” where a combination of keys is issued to run a command/script rather than a single or a simultaneous stroke of two or more. i.e left, down, left, right arrow keys, R_CTRL to run Firefox. Right, right, Up, right arrow keys, delete to power off the PC, etc.

Don’t know if such command exists, but there you go.

Bonus points if its a standalone and supports X11, Wayland and Arcan.

    You mean a key combination like OS, f,i,r,e,f,down,down,enter to launch Firefox?

    That exists, bud. There are even multiple ways to achieve the same command, like “OS,t,e,r,m,i,n,a,l,down,enter, ‘open Firefox’”

      Hahaha, thank you. In windows that would be even more efficient, since a few letters will be enough to identify something unique. Win, f, i, enter

        The same is true in Linux, but it’s harder to get the joke with “OS,f,i,enter”

        Win, f, i, enter

        It’s literally the same with most Linux’s DEs. And even in Window Managers when using dmenu or rofi.

          Good. Why did he then fell the need for absurd key combos?
