Other [Solved] Mango question about config

[anund]

I have mango running on 15.1-BETA1

cp /usr/local/etc/mango/config.conf.sample ~/.config/mango/config.conf

The bindings for exit and foot are:

bind=SUPER,m,quit
bind=ALT,Return,spawn,foot

SUPER-m quits mango but Alt-Return does nothing

which foot
/usr/local/bin/foot

I switched the bindings to
bind=SUPER,m,spawn,foot
bind=Alt,Return,quit

Now Alt-Return quits mango and Super-m does nothing, which at least shows that config file is being used.

What could be causing this?

Are you normally able to run foot? Maybe you're missing fonts so that the program doesn't even launch.

That was it. Installed urwfonts. Thanks!

You're welcome! Been there, too.

I think installing any font would be sufficient, too. There are tools like fc-list(1) and fc-match(1) that can be useful for debugging font issues.
