@fossfreedom I don't see how. OP want's the dash to pop up. The other question is talking about the launcher. – Kris Harper Nov 12 '11 at 14:25

- Install
xmacro
. - Install
compizconfig-settings-manager
. - Open
ccsm
and click the Commands button (not the tick in front of it).
- Go to the Commands tab and copy-paste this line into an empty box:
echo “KeyStrPress Super_L KeyStrRelease Super_L”| xmacroplay -d 1 :0.0 &> /dev/null
.
- Go to the Edge bindings tab and click the button labeled None next to the corresponding command number.
That should've done the trick.
