Rebind the "forward" button to LSHIFT

[semedilino-073]

Hello,
I installed mow on Arch and I was trying to rebind my forward button to the LSHIFT, but I ran into some issues that I don't understand. Maybe I'm wrong and I hope so, it would be better. This is the command I'm using:
mow config bind forward key key-code lshift
But this error popped up:
error: Invalid value "lshift" for '<KEY>': invalid digit found in string
Do you have any solutions?

Hi! When using key-code you have to provide a number, looks to me like the code for both left and right shift is 16. You can use a tool like this one to look up key codes.

Hi, thanks for the immediate answer! I didn't expect that, so I'm sorry for my late response.
I ran:
mow config bind forward key key-code 16
And got:
thread 'main' panicked at src/main.rs:39:52: called ``Result::unwrap()`` on an ``Err value: HidApiError { message: "hid_error is not implemented yet" } note: run with ``RUST_BACKTRACE=1`` environment variable to display a backtrace

Ehmm, I misclicked :/

That's probably the hidapi failing, you can try running as root (with sudo) or create a "rules" file as described here.

YOU'RE A GENIUS!! Sorry for that, but seriously, thanks! The solution was to just run the command as sudo. Thanks again!
