+# To specify a key, you can use 'xbindkeys --key' or
+# 'xbindkeys --multikey' and put one of the two lines in this file.
+#
+# The format of a command line is:
+#    "command to start"
+#       associated key
+#
+#
+# A list of keys is in /usr/include/X11/keysym.h and in
+# /usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h
+# The XK_ is not needed.
+#
+# List of modifier:
+#   Release, Control, Shift, Mod1 (Alt), Mod2 (NumLock),
+#   Mod3 (CapsLock), Mod4, Mod5 (Scroll).
+#
+
+# The release modifier is not a standard X modifier, but you can
+# use it if you want to catch release events instead of press events
+
+# By defaults, xbindkeys does not pay attention with the modifiers
+# NumLock, CapsLock and ScrollLock.
+# Uncomment the lines above if you want to pay attention to them.
+
+#keystate_numlock = enable
+#keystate_capslock = enable
+#keystate_scrolllock= enable
+
+# Examples of commands:
+
+#"xbindkeys_show" 
+#  control+shift + q
+
+# set directly keycode (here control + f with my keyboard)
+#"xterm"
+#  c:41 + m:0x4
+
+# specify a mouse button
