Using CLI - files management
Before starting...
Determine where you are going to store your keymap and macro files. You must create these files before using chmfp (which can create them for you), you just need to make sure the directory you are going to use exists. If you are planning to use the default (of course, discarding the < and >, and replacing what's in-between by the real name) :
$ cd /home/<username> $ mkdir .chmfp
Key mappings
Default file locations for key mapping file is <user home directory>/.chmfp/chmfp_keymap. You can run the application by using a different name, with :
$ chmfp -f <key mapping filename>
Macros
Default macro files are in fact a set of files, appended by the macro number, such as
<user home directory>/.chmfp/chmfp_macro-X, where X is 1, 2,... You can run the application by using a different name, with :
$ chmfp -m <macro filename set>
Global
As described in the relevant chapter, you might prefer to use only one file for both key mappings and macros. This is achieved by using :
$ chmfp -g <global filename>
In this scheme, you can also use the default global name <user home directory>/.chmfp/chmfp_globalmap with :
$ chmfp -G
