Generate your own images

Qtile provides a tiny helper script to generate keybindings images from a config file. In the repository, the script is located under scripts/gen-keybinding-img.

This script accepts a configuration file and an output directory. If no argument is given, the default configuration will be used and files will be placed in same directory where the command has been run.

$ ./scripts/gen-keybinding-img
usage: gen-keybinding-img [-h] [-c CONFIGFILE] [-o OUTPUT_DIR]
