Enligthenment and IPC
<font face=aircut3/12 color=#ffffff>

Enlightenment has a fairly interesting IPC system that allows external
applications (such as Eterm) to talk to enlightenment and both ask for
information and change information. There is a program that was installed with
enlightenment called "eesh" that is a simple shell interface to the IPC in
Enlightenment. It's even got its own documentation. You can go into
eesh and type "help" and it should spit back a list of commands that it
understands.
<p>
Note: there are many commands that will show up in E's IPC that don't
necessarily work yet, or aren't fully implemented. you CAN potentially do some
really bizarre things to your system by using eesh, but for the most part it's
just another interesting interface to E. In your distribution package you
should have received some sample scripts written in perl that interface to E
through eesh showing how you can externally script E to do more things outside
E's base functionality. Expect the IPC to get more flushed out in future
revisions.

To exit eesh, hit CTRL + D (EOF)

Editing Your Keybindings

To set your own keybindings, all you have to do is find the keybindings.cfg
file that was installed with enlightenment, and make a copy in your
~/.enlightenment directory. This file is fairly long, but shouldn't be too
difficult to edit. Be careful! the keybindings in this file will override ALL
the default keybindings, as long as this file exists, so edit this file with
extreme caution (unless you know what you're doing)
<p>
To reset your keybindings back to the default, simply remove this file from
your ~/.enlightenment directory. The next time you restart E it should reload
the default keybindings into memory.
