leachim6 / obkey Goto Github PK

I just installed obkey-git from the AUR repo . but it fails to start here
is the output :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/obkey", line 40, in <module>
    ob.load(path)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/obkey_classes.py", line 1599, in load
    self.keyboard = OBKeyboard(keyboard)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/obkey_classes.py", line 1564, in
__init__
    self.chainQuitKey = xml_parse_string(cqk)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/obkey_classes.py", line 934, in
xml_parse_string
    return elt.firstChild.nodeValue
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'nodeValue'

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. In Ubuntu + lxde, the config file is lxde-rc.xml, not rc.xml
2. obkey *always* fails at start
3. The error appearing is not very helpful

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
A long python error

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ubuntu + lxde

Please provide any additional information below.
I have modified the script, in the hope that it'll be useful. Just exception 
handling. Also used the shutil module instead of os.system() directly, in order 
to copy the file.

_Key (text)_ says "A-Tab" while _Key_ says "Invalid", every keybind with Tab 
does that

Would it be possible to implement some mechanism
capable of checking collision between key combination
proposed by user with the existing one ?

Thanks

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have

    <keybind key="A-Tab">
      <action name="NextWindow">
        <dialog>icons</dialog>
      </action>
    </keybind>

in your rc.xml

2. Start obkey and save the rc.xml

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It should remain the same, but obkey knows the dialog property just as binary, 
hence produces:

    <keybind key="A-Tab">
      <action name="NextWindow">
        <dialog>no</dialog>
      </action>
    </keybind>

I think the problem is in obkey_classes.py last function should be (I think) 
just:
os.system( "openbox --reconfigure" )
