Usage
rofi
> UDISKIE_DMENU_LAUNCHER="rofi" udiskie-dmenu -matching regex -dmenu -i -no-custom -multi-select
User defined shortcut -kb-custom-1
(defaults to Alt+1
) will detach drive (umount) by e.g. powering down its physical port.
The following example redefines the custom shortcut to Shift+Enter
:
UDISKIE_DMENU_LAUNCHER='rofi -kb-accept-alt "" -kb-custom-1 "Shift+Return"'
You must ensure that the key combination isn't already binded to other operation (in this case -kb-accept-alt
).
