xbindkeys como alternativa Linux ao PowerToys
Atualizado em
Nossa avaliação
xbindkeys is a solid, lightweight tool for binding keys and mouse buttons to commands, making it a good replacement for PowerToys’ keyboard‑remapping features. It is ideal for users who only need custom shortcuts and simple scripts. However, it does not cover window snapping, screenshot tools, clipboard history, text expansion, or file‑manager previews, so it is not a full PowerToys substitute.

Abrindo seus arquivos do PowerToys
PowerToys stores its settings in JSON files under %APPDATA%/Microsoft/PowerToys. xbindkeys reads a plain text configuration file (~/.xbindkeysrc). There is no direct import/export mechanism; users must manually translate desired bindings into the xbindkeysrc syntax.
