For example: bindsym $mod+p exec /home/<user>/bin/ms-personal Which launches urxvt with a specific -name option. For some reason, this binding does not take effect when I first launch i3; `$mod+p` has no effect. However, if I reload my i3 configuration using `$mod+shift+C`, `$mod+p` then works. Is this a known issue?Mon, 26 Nov 2012 09:09:16 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/818/some-keybindings-not-taking-effect-on-initial-i3-startup/Comment by Michael for <p>I have some custom keybindings in my .i3/config which launch specific scripts.
