Global actions
These actions are not used to manipulate windows. As such, they work whether a window is currently focused or not.
Execute

Option | Default Value | Description |
---|---|---|
<execute> | "" | A string which is the command to be executed, along with any arguments to be passed to it. The "~" tilde character will be expanded to your home directory, but no other shell expansions or scripting syntax may be used in the command. |
<startupnotify><enabled> | no | A boolean (yes/no) which says if the startup notification protocol should be used to notify other programs that an application is launching. |
Example:
<keybind key="W-space">
<action name="Execute">
<startupnotify>
<enabled>yes</enabled>
<name>Terminal</name>
</startupnotify>
<execute>gnome-terminal</execute>
</action>
</keybind>
