Waybind is a lightweight global keyboard shortcut daemon written in Python.
It lets you define custom keybindings that launch commands.
Works on both X11 and Wayland, depending on permissions and compositor behavior.
Note. Tested on Wayland – LabWc
✅ Features
– Global keybinding support using low-level input events
– Supports combinations like `CTRL+ALT+T`, `SUPER+W`, etc.
– Lightweight and daemonized – runs quietly in the background
– No `systemd` or desktop environment integration forced/required (but recommended).
– Minimal dependencies (Python only)

PostX Gnu/Linux 0.9 is released
Plenty of things changed, minimalism and functionality remained.
All the material is here: https://www.techtimejourney.net/PostX_09/
Here is a mandatory screenshot. Remember to read the release notes in detail. There might be small manual adjustments you need to make. Also, at the end of this post there is a part that you should run as a script, to fix some issues that came apparent after this release. These issues will be addressed in future builds.

The wandering keyboard issue.
Keyboard is not a fixed entity and thus its numbering will move upon fresh install. This will do harm to osd. Here is a fix for it.
sudo apt install evtest #Install evtest
sudo evtest #Find your keyboard
sudo nano /usr/share/osd.py #Open osd.py
KEYBOARD_DEVICE = “/dev/input/event4” #Modify the number to match the device number of keyboard.
Exit Openbox and login again.
Important2: Fix for sources and troublesome firmware. Save the script below, for example, script.sh. Then do sudo bash script.sh and run it. It will fix the sources list and remove a troublesome firmware. Notice that Nvidia part is only needed when Lightdm or other X resources are stopped and you are actually installing Nvidia proprietary from nvidia.com

# 2. Remove Debian Nvidia drivers if present - needed only when using proprietary drivers from nvidia.com

Multiple projects advanced as PostX Gnu/Linux 0.9 approaches
Based on Debian Bookworm having X11 and Openbox. PostX Gnu/Linux release is likely to happen in next 3 weeks or so.
https://github.com/postman721/Spin-Fm
https://github.com/postman721/Quick-Terminal-generic
https://github.com/postman721/Albix
https://github.com/postman721/Metapad
Have already had their new releases.
Also, I have created a new repository: https://github.com/postman721/PostX
Which for now, has some source materials in it. When release is done, I will also likely release the PostX Gnu/Linux building script. In these days it is good to share. And of course, after more than a decade of Debian I am considering to go ahead and building something else for awhile, maybe OpenSuse derivative is on the horizon. Whatever the future holds, PostX Gnu/Linux will stay active on Debian side and will see an increase on automated builds(currently working on it), which means easier and more predictable times of release.
Folder Compressor & Archive Inspector
Another one of those PostX Gnu/Linux upcoming programs just got released. Still plenty to do but here is some new software to look at.

As of 24th of February: This project received a substantial upgrade.
