Install the libinput-gestures package from the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libinput-gestures - (I use yay for that.) - # yay -S libinput-gestures +1. Install the `libinput-gestures` package from the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libinput-gestures + (I use yay for that.` + # `yay -S libinput-gesture` 2. Install xdotool to bind gestures to virtual key strokes and/or optionally wmctrl for libinput-gestures internal commands. - # pacman -S xdotool wmctrl + # `pacman -S xdotool wmctrl` 3. Add the current user to the input group: - # gpasswd -a $USER input + # `gpasswd -a $USER input` 4. Start libinput-gestures and make it autostart at login: - $ libinput-gestures-setup autostart start + $ `libinput-gestures-setup autostart start` 5. Copy the default config file to your $HOME. - # cp /etc/libinput-gestures.conf ~/.config/libinput-gestures.conf + # `cp /etc/libinput-gestures.conf ~/.config/libinput-gestures.conf` 6. Edit the file and add a gesture. For example the following: - gesture swipe up 3 xdotool key super+w + ` gesture swipe up 3 xdotool key super+w` 7. Restart libinput-gestures: - $ libinput-gestures-setup restart + $ `libinput-gestures-setup restart` 8. Now when swiping up on your touchpad using three finger, xdotool is pressing the Super- or Meta-Key and "W", whih opens the application overview. \ No newline at end of file
