-# Key bindings
-#
-# Key bindings are specified as a list of objects. For example, this is the
-# default paste binding:
-#
-# `- { key: V, mods: Control|Shift, action: Paste }`
-#
-# Each key binding will specify a:
-#
-# - `key`: Identifier of the key pressed
-#
-#    - A-Z
-#    - F1-F24
-#    - Key0-Key9
-#
-#    A full list with available key codes can be found here:
-#    https://docs.rs/winit/*/winit/event/enum.VirtualKeyCode.html#variants
-#
-#    Instead of using the name of the keys, the `key` field also supports using
-#    the scancode of the desired key. Scancodes have to be specified as a
-#    decimal number. This command will allow you to display the hex scancodes
-#    for certain keys:
-#
-#       `showkey --scancodes`.
-#
-# Then exactly one of:
-#
-# - `chars`: Send a byte sequence to the running application
-#
-#    The `chars` field writes the specified string to the terminal. This makes
-#    it possible to pass escape sequences. To find escape codes for bindings
-#    like `PageUp` (`"\x1b[5~"`), you can run the command `showkey -a` outside
-#    of tmux. Note that applications use terminfo to map escape sequences back
-#    to keys. It is therefore required to update the terminfo when changing an
-#    escape sequence.
-#
-# - `action`: Execute a predefined action

-#
-# - `command`: Fork and execute a specified command plus arguments
-#
-#    The `command` field must be a map containing a `program` string and an
-#    `args` array of command line parameter strings. For example:
-#       `{ program: "alacritty", args: ["-e", "vttest"] }`
-#
-# And optionally:
-#
-# - `mods`: Key modifiers to filter binding actions
-#
-#    - Command
-#    - Control
-#    - Option
-#    - Super
-#    - Shift
-#    - Alt
-#
-#    Multiple `mods` can be combined using `|` like this:
-#       `mods: Control|Shift`.
-#    Whitespace and capitalization are relevant and must match the example.
-#
-# - `mode`: Indicate a binding for only specific terminal reported modes
-#
-#    This is mainly used to send applications the correct escape sequences
-#    when in different modes.
-#
-#    - AppCursor
-#    - AppKeypad
-#    - Search
-#    - Alt
-#    - Vi
-#
-#    A `~` operator can be used before a mode to apply the binding whenever
-#    the mode is *not* active, e.g. `~Alt`.
-#
-# Bindings are always filled by default, but will be replaced when a new
-# binding with the same triggers is defined. To unset a default binding, it can
-# be mapped to the `ReceiveChar` action. Alternatively, you can use `None` for
-# a no-op if you do not wish to receive input characters for that binding.
-#
-# If the same trigger is assigned to multiple actions, all of them are executed
-# in the order they were defined in.
