Ritual for setting up a KDE environment
These are the steps to follow to set up a kde environment, in more or less the order or urgency.
Virtual desktops
Can't live without this. Declare $4\times4$ in Settings then for Switching, first "Always Enabled" switching desktop on edge (0ms or minimum for everything, no animation) in Shortcuts KWin family such as:
- Ctrl+(left,right,up,down): navigate through desktops (staying in the same row/column).
- Ctrl+Alt+Shift+(left,right,up,down): navigate through desktops (seemingly)
- Ctrl+Alt+(left,right,up,down): drag active window navigate through desktops.
The shortcuts are now to be found in KWin's Global Shortcuts.
To zoom in/out, go in Desktop Behaviour, and select Desktop Grid with shortcut Alt+E. Remove fading for both desktop & windows.
Window Behavior
- Focus follows mouse (mouse precedence)
- Delay focus by 0ms
- Alt+Mouse Wheel => Raise/Lower.
Shortcuts
- PRE Ctrl+Alt+P generates a <pre></pre> tag.
- spacehtml Ctrl+Shift+Space generates a
- displaystyle Ctrl+Alt+D generated displaystyle (useful for Canvas)
- julia Ctrl+Alt+J generates a Julia snippet:
<syntaxhighlight lang="python"></syntaxhighlight>
which is actually python until I get support for julia. - tt Ctrl+Alt+T generates a <tt></tt> tag
- wz Ctrl+Alt+W generates a wz <wz tip="">(?!)</wz> tag.
- wz-tip Ctrl+Alt+Shift+W generates a <wz tagtotip=></wz><span id=""></span> tag.
- bib Ctrl+Alt+B opens by bibTeX file.
They are all defined in this file which you can import.
Konqueror
I use this as the file browser (better than dolphin).
It has a lot of configurations in itself, most of them obvious. Maybe the most important is the web shortcut lw (for "laussywiki") that brings me to this website:
