Initial implementation of shortcut to windows
[PURPOSE] In editors such as vi and emacs, a user can mark a line in a file with a shortcut key and afterwards jump back to that line using the shortcut. The idea is extended to opened windows. A user can assign a keyboard shortcut to an opened window. Afterwards, the shortcut can be used to switch focus back to the marked window. Such shortcuts save the user from pressing "alt+tab" multiple times to cycle through windows until the desired one is found. [EXAMPLE USAGE] The following binding is added to file "~/.fluxbox/keys": Mod1 m ARG :MarkWindow Mod1 g ARG :GotoMarkedWindow User enters "alt+m x" to mark the currently focused window with shortcut key 'x' User enters "alt+g x" to switch focus to the marked window [IMPLEMENTATION SUMMARY] - Two new commands were added :MarkWindow and :GotoMarkedWindow - Keys.cc was modified: - addBinding() method supports parsing an argument placeholder where the user can pass in a shortcut key - doAction() method forwards the shortcut key to the command to execute - Class Keys::t_key was modified to recognize a placeholder key - New class ShortcutManager was added to maintain mapping of shortcut keys to marked windows
