I recently wrote a script with a loop that will switch out the functionality of a set of key presses based on a set of other keypresses.



I'm starting to think the same can be done with triggerhappy.



So for instance, if you press 1, the q key is assigned functionality a(), w is assigned functionality b(), and e is assigned the functionality c() when pressed.



But if I press 2 then the q key is assigned functionality d(), and w is assigned the functionality e(), and e is assigned the functionality f().



My thought is that it would be something like assigning an event to KEY_1 which would call thd --triggers <path-to-events-for-file-1> and replace the functionalities with (the same thing for KEY_1-KEY_2) and replace the following: q:a() w:b() c:()



And that it would do the same with KEY_2 except that instead the keys would be q:d() w:e() e:f()



Where <letter>() is a bash command.



Is that correct?
