# A hotkey is written according to the following rules:
#
#   hotkey       = <mode> '<' <action> | <action>
#
#   mode         = 'name of mode' | <mode> ',' <mode>
#

#                  <keysym> ';' <mode>             | <keysym> '->' ';' <mode>
#
#   keysym       = <mod> '-' <key> | <key>
#
#   mod          = 'modifier keyword' | <mod> '+' <mod>
#
#   key          = <literal> | <keycode>
#
#   literal      = 'single letter or built-in keyword'
#
#   keycode      = 'apple keyboard kVK_<Key> values (0x3C)'
#
#   proc_map_lst = * <proc_map>

#
#   string       = '"' 'sequence of characters' '"'
#
#   command      = command is executed through '$SHELL -c' and
#                  follows valid shell syntax. if the $SHELL environment
#                  variable is not set, it will default to '/bin/bash'.
#                  when bash is used, the ';' delimeter can be specified
#                  to chain commands.
#
#                  to allow a command to extend into multiple lines,
#                  prepend '\' at the end of the previous line.
#
#                  an EOL character signifies the end of the bind.
#
#   ->           = keypress is not consumed by skhd
#
#   *            = matches every application not specified in <proc_map_lst>
#
#   ~            = application is unbound and keypress is forwarded per usual, when specified in a <proc_map>
#
# A mode is declared according to the following rules:
#
#   mode_decl = '::' <name> '@' ':' <command> | '::' <name> ':' <command> |
#               '::' <name> '@'               | '::' <name>
#
#   name      = desired name for this mode,
#
#   @         = capture keypresses regardless of being bound to an action
#
#   command   = command is executed through '$SHELL -c' and
#               follows valid shell syntax. if the $SHELL environment
#               variable is not set, it will default to '/bin/bash'.
#               when bash is used, the ';' delimeter can be specified
