Hello, i'm starting with Hammerspoon, do you have by any chance a snippet on how to use your spoon?
Thanks in advance :)

Hello, i'm starting with Hammerspoon, do you have by any chance a snippet on how to use your spoon?

hi, sorry late for you, just follow the steps:

1. enter your directory '~/.hammerspoon/Spoons/HoldToQuit.spoon'
2. copy my snippet (HoldToQuit.spoon.lua)
3. replace all content of your 'init.lua' file with clipboard
4. now enter your directory '~/.hammerspoon'
5. open 'init.lua'(if not exist, empty one.), append the content:

local obj = hs.loadSpoon("HoldToQuit")
obj:init()
obj:start()

5. do 'reload config' on your Hammerspoon

Hi,

Thanks a lot for the help and for the great spoon ! Now it works as expected ! :)
