Custom keys can be added with the Xbindkeys program.
With the help of the default xev program you can check the keys you want:
* Start the program and type the key you want to see its information
`xev > keys.txt`
* Look for the line that says
`keycode KEY_NUMBER (keysym INGORE_THIS, KEY_NAME)`
* Now on xbindkeysrc you'll be adding the information for each bind you want:
* Start the program and type the key you want to see its information
`xev > keys.txt`
* Look for the line that says
`keycode KEY_NUMBER (keysym INGORE_THIS, KEY_NAME)`
* Now on _".xbindkeysrc"_ add the information for each bind:
```
"WHAT_YOU_WANT_HERE_GOES_HERE"
m:0x0 + c:KEY_NUMBER
KEY_NAME
```
In the example below we'll have the modified keys:
* The "windows" key switch windows using dmenu pre-installed.
* The "menu" key brings an application launcher you type names into using dmenu.
