- Introduced global variables to capture last key event (state, keysym, button) - Extended feh_printf to expand %K with the actual key pressed - Updated keyevents.c to assign globals before action handling - this so downstream actions could be branced on pressed key not be limited to 10 actions only

This PR introduces a new printf-style substitution
%Kthat expandsto the key (or key combination) which triggered the action.
Motivation
Currently, feh actions can access file paths (
%f,%F) and othercontextual info, but not the actual key used. This makes it harder
to write key-dependent custom scripts.
Changes
feh.hto store the last key event.keyevents.cto populate these vars infeh_event_handle_generic.feh_printfinslideshow.cto substitute%Kwiththe triggering key sequence.
%Kexpands correctly for simple keys and combinations.Example usage
feh --action1 'echo "Pressed %K on %f"'note:
most of this is llm generated for my use if any wants to have more actions than 10
