Terminators hide_window Toggle windows visibility needs dev-libs/keybinder to work.

Comment 1 Kent Andersson 2021-06-21 07:57:50 UTC

If run from another terminal without keybinder:
Unable to load Keybinder module. This means the hide_window shortcut will be unavailable
Unable to bind hide_window key, another instance/window has it.

Comment 2 Alexey 2021-06-21 15:03:02 UTC

It's currently an optfeature, which means "emerge terminator" will advise you to install keybinder for the shortcuts to be available.

Unfortunately, I can't make it a proper dependency until https://www.gentoo.org/glep/glep-0062.html is implemented.

The workaround I'm using now to avoid mentioning such deps in @world is https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/sets

Thanks for the quick clarification. I've completely missed this.
