xgesture

Posted on January 14th, 2004 by Sacha Chua

xgesture promises application-specific gesture mapping, which could be
very useful. I’d like to have a general set of gestures. E would get
me my Emacs window, starting it if necessary. N would bring the Net up
- the browser, in this case. r switches to Emacs and starts a
*remember* with whatever’s in the clipboard.

Would be fun.

Goal: Be able to blog from Mozilla.
