I'm trying to duplicate Google Sheets' shortcut to insert current date and time stamp under Xubuntu.
I think I'm almost there as I have a shell script ~/bin/clipdate.sh
#!/bin/bash
date +'[%Y.%m.%d-%H.%M]' | xclip -sel clip
and I've set /commands/custom/<Primary><Alt>semicolon
as Property
and /home/****/bin/clipdate.sh
as Value
.
And it works, I hit the keys, and the timestamp lands in my clipboard nicely.
But I want the exact same keys :/ trying:
/commands/custom/<Primary><Alt><Shift>colon
doesn't work/commands/custom/<Primary><Alt>semicolon
doesn't work
and I have another shortcut consisting of <Primary><Alt><Shift>
and another key (L if that matters) and it does work so it seems it's not a question of using all three.
Is this some sort of a bug, am I doing it wrong or is it just not possible for some reason?
