Command reference

Every command XCommander ships with, grouped the way the which-key panel groups them. Every sequence starts with the leader key, ⌥↩ unless you chose another one, so m m below means ⌥↩ then m then m. An uppercase letter means with Shift.

The Xcode menu item column is what XCommander presses for you (as it appears in Xcode 27.2). Commands marked XCommander are ones Xcode doesn't have, done by XCommander itself. The id is what you write in your configuration file to bind a command to other keys.

If a key beeps, Xcode has that command greyed out right now, as it would be in the menu. The which-key panel leaves out keys for commands your version of Xcode doesn't have.
