# awesome-ez

awesome-ez is a library for [Awesome](https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome)
window manager that aims to simplify the creation of key and button bindings.
It is based on code from the old Awesome wiki.

## Usage

Require the library:
```lua
local ez = require("awesome-ez")
```

Use `ez.keytable` to define key bindings:
```lua
local globalkeys = ez.keytable {
    ["M-<Return>"] = {awful.spawn, "xterm"},
    ...
}
```

Use `ez.btntable` to define button bindings:
```lua
local clientbtns = ez.btntable {
    ["1"] = function (c) client.focus = c end,
    ["M-1"] = awful.mouse.client.move,
    ["M-3"] = awful.mouse.client.resize,
}
```

See the [API documentation](https://jcrd.github.io/awesome-ez/) for
descriptions of all functions.
