Solution to Hotkey issue
by subhrajit on Thursday October 15th 2009, 12:22
I managed to figure out a pretty nice solution to the hotkeys issue. Assuming you have successfully installed WordWeb in wine, here is what you'll need to do to get the hotkey (ctrl+alt+W) working:
3. Go to System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts. Add a new custom shortcut. Give it a name (say "WordWeb Hot Key") and in the command enter the script file along with its full path (i.e. /path/to/script.sh). Save it. Now click on the new Keyboard shortcut in the list and press ctrl+alt+W to define the shortcut.
That's it! You'll now have your WordWeb hotkey ready. Select any text in any window and simpley hit ctrl+alt+W.
