+
+use the Windows key both as a modifier (so you could have shortcuts
+
+like Win+<strong class="keycap">R</strong>), and as a regular key (so that pressing
+
+Win on its own could open the TDE menu). This feature
+
+was removed for reasons of usability and accessibility, as well as
+
+keeping the code clean. For current versions of TDE, you have two
+
+options: either use a different shortcut to open the TDE menu (the
+
+default is <strong class="keycap">Alt</strong>+<strong class="keycap">F1</strong>), or remap the Win key to be a regular
+
+key, rather than a modifier.</p><p>If you choose to do the second, here's one way:
+
+
+
+
+<p class="orderedlist"><ol type="1"><li><p>Find the keycode for your Win key
+
+using <strong class="command">xev</strong>: Run the command
+
+<strong class="userinput"><code><strong class="command">xev</strong></code></strong> in a Konsole, and
+
+press the Win key. Look in the output of
+
+<strong class="command">xev</strong> for
+
+<code class="computeroutput">keycode <em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em></code>,
+
+where <em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em> is the keycode of the
+
+Win key.</p></li><li><p>Use <strong class="command">xmodmap</strong> to remap the
+
+Win key. An appropriate command is <strong class="userinput"><code><strong class="command">xmodmap
+
+<code class="option">-e</code> 'keycode
+
+<em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em>=Menu'</strong></code></strong>.</p></li><li><p>In the KDE Control Center, go to
+
+Regional &amp;
+
+Accessibility-&gt;Keyboard Shortcuts and set the shortcut for Popup Launch
+
+Menu to the Win key. You should now be
+
+able to popup the TDE menu by pressing the Win key.</p></li><li><p>One more step is required to save the changes across
+
+settings: Create a file <code class="filename">~/.trinity/env/win-key.sh</code>
+
+(create the directory if it doesn't exist), and add the
+
+<strong class="command">xmodmap</strong> command you used previously to it. The
+
+change should now be applied every time you start TDE.</p></li></ol>
