Dependencies for installing ungoogled-chromium from source.

Might be useful someday, but i guess i should update the list. At least in the far future.

Other_shortcuts.md

Chromebook Search key shortcut to open startmenu. (i.e. 'xfce4-popup-whiskermenu')

Alternatively 'xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu', 'xfce4-appfinder' or 'xfce4-appfinder --collapsed'

xfconf-query --create --channel xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts --property '/commands/custom/Overlay1_Enable' --type string --set 'xfce4-popup-whiskermenu'

Start Chromium browser / open new window with Ctrl+Alt+C.

While running, Ctrl+N works aswell, even a little smoother (native global shortcut).

xfconf-query --create --channel xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts --property '/commands/custom/<Primary><Alt>c' --type string --set 'chromium'

TranslateAndNotify.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash
notify-send -t 8000 --icon=info "$(xsel -o)" \
	"$(wget -U "Mozilla/5.0" -qO - "http://translate.googleapis.com/translate_a/single?client=gtx&sl=auto&tl=sv&dt=t&q=$(xsel -o)" | cut -d"\"" -f2)"


## Use with xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts. The command below binds Shift+Ctrl+Alt+T to this script (which in this case is located in /home/USER/Scripts)
## xfconf-query --create --channel xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts --property '/commands/custom/<Primary><Shift><Alt>t' --type string --set $HOME'/Scripts/TranslateAndNotify.sh'

## Select word(s) or sentence(s), hit the shortcut and you the translation as a notification.
