AutoKey run tests and provide feedback on a pull request

🛑 Caution: Although the steps below have you creating and using a clone of AutoKey, the clone shares the same configuration folder as the installed copy of AutoKey. Since there's always a risk of corruption of files when one is testing new code, it's best not to run these tests on a system where the installed copy of AutoKey contains valued custom phrases and/or scripts. I recommend creating a virtual machine instead.

1. Make sure that the system you'll be doing the tests on already has a working copy of AutoKey installed on it (so that you'll already have all the necessary apt dependencies).
2. Install the git package in Kubuntu.
3. Install the tox package in Kubuntu.
4. Open the directory you'd like to create the cloned autokey directory inside of in a terminal window.
5. Clone the PR:

Manage The Wiki Locally

Clone the AutoKey wiki:

1. Open the directory you'd like to put the clone's directory into in a terminal window.
2. Clone the wiki, which will create the autokey.wiki directory inside of the current directory:

   git clone https://github.com/autokey/autokey.wiki.git

Update the clone and check the wiki for changes:
