You've rather "lost me" here. I don't see how I could have 'helped' with this one.......'cos I've never used FluxBox in my life!

You sure you're not getting me confused with somebody else?

FbBox isn't fluxbox, it's Openbox with FbPanel. This was an alternate environment produced in .pet and .sfs formats. These were created by @radky. I haven't used it for some time so can't advise how to do what is being asked. Maybe radky can offer a suggestion.

Hi pp4mnklinux, you were almost right.
Unlike MikeWalsh, I had used FbBox. However, like MikeWalsh I also had no recollection of advising you about it. And it didn't seem likely as I don't use Keyboard shortcuts which would require me to remember them. But as I can't remember what I posted last week I had to admit the possibility. So I ran https://rockedge.org/psearch/ and plugged in the search terms "FbBox shortcuts" and found:

The answer there reflects a quarter century of legal practice: (1) first clearly state that you don't know what you're talking about and then (2) hazard a guess.

With your help... finally found,.

Thanks @radky

There is an info icon at the task bar, where appears info about HOTKEYS.

How can I modify them? ( I want to use an specific key to start my default browser ..instead winkey+B)

Where is the file I must modify?
Hi pp4mnklinux,

The hotkey text file is here:

/usr/local/FbBox/hotkeys-fbbox

---

The hotkey functions are set here:

/root/.config/openbox/rc.xml

---

The keybindings to run applications start on line 348 of /root/.config/openbox/rc.xml

Currently, the hotkey (W-b) for launching the defaultbrowser is set on line 411 as follows:
CODE: SELECT ALL

<keybind key="W-b"><action name="Execute"><command>defaultbrowser</command></action></keybind>
Be careful you do not choose a key combination that is already used for another hotkey (current keybindings start on line 195 of /root/.config/openbox/rc.xml).

After modifying the hotkey, you can select the "Reload openbox" option from the desktop Right-click menu, or simply restart X.

Good luck!
