> Important Keybinds
the most important keybind to know is *SUPER+K*
this will open a searchable menu with all of your keybinds.
whenever SUPER is noted in your keybinds, that's the button generally found between ctrl and alt, on most keyboards it will have a windows logo, on macOS keyboards it'll be the option key.
However, you don't want to be referencing this menu all the time, so here's the keybinds you should learn first:
[^SUPER+SPACE]:
this opens your app runner, it's also set up to find files within your home directory automatically and can find settings for you.
[^SUPER+Y]:
this opens shelly, your package installer. the first time you can pick which repositories to set it up for, pacman + AUR is recommended, flatpak is optional.
*super+shift+Y* will instead open the unipkg TUI (if installed), which will work on non-arch distro's.
in the config, you can tweak these to use omarchy's pacman/AUR TUIs instead, which are simpler.
[^SUPER+R]:
this reloads mango, important when you change the config.
[^SUPER+1-9]:
using SUPER + the number keys allows you to switch between workspaces. holding shift while doing this allows you to take your active window with you.
[^SUPER+Left Mouse Button]:
this will allow you to drag and re-organize windows
[^SUPER+Right Mouse Button]:
this will allow you to drag to re-size windows
[^SUPER+Q]:
this quits the current window, like pressing the X on a desktop environment window
[^SUPER+Z]:
this opens the power menu, allowing you to log out, reboot or turn off your computer
[^SUPER+E]:
this opens your file browser
[^SUPER+B]:
this opens firefox
[^SUPER+ENTER]:
this opens your terminal
[^SUPER+H]:
this opens a menu that gives you short info on common commands, pressing enter or double-clicking a command will open the manual page for that command.
holding shift will instead open this menu!
[^SUPER+X]:
this opens a process manager/performance monitor. you can use this to see what's using your CPU/RAM or to kill frozen programs. you can also copy the command used to start something from here.
[^SUPER+K]:
as mentioned before, this will give you a full overview of all keys.
