i3-config-wizard(1)

NAME

   i3-config-wizard - creates a keysym based config based on your layout

SYNOPSIS

   i3-config-wizard

FILES

   /etc/i3/config.keycodes
   This file contains the default configuration with keycodes. All the
   bindcode 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/config exists. i3-config-wizard creates a keysym based i3 config
   file (based on /etc/i3/config.keycodes) in /.i3/config.

   The advantage of using keysyms is that the config file is easy to read,
   understand 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.
