Keystroke visualizer for GUI version Emacs
This package is a keystroke visualizer for GUI version Emacs.
You no longer need to use external tools to display keystrokes when creating screencasts!
Install
Keypression is available in melpa. You can install keypression via package-install M-x package-install [ret] keypression [ret]
Usage
Add the following to your .emacs. (This is not necessary if you installed from MELPA)
(require 'keypression)
Then, if you want to display keystrokes, do the following:
M-x keypression-mode
Run it again to turn it off.
The default is a simple display, so you can customize it as follows.
(setq keypression-use-child-frame nil
keypression-fade-out-delay 1.0
keypression-frame-justify 'keypression-left-justified
keypression-cast-command-name t
keypression-cast-command-name-format "%s %s"
keypression-combine-same-keystrokes t
keypression-font-face-attribute '(:width normal :height 200 :weight bold))
To change the display position, do the following.
(setq keypression-x-offset 100
keypression-y-offset 100)
Restriction
On Windows, child-frame
works well, but on Linux (GTK+3) and macOS versions, child-frame
is disabled by default because of a problem.
If child-frame is disabled, all the input key display frames are displayed on the taskbar.
I think there is no problem to create a screencast, but it seems to be difficult to switch applications.
