Well, it depends what you mean with the Super key but sure it
should give you a bunch of more shortcuts to play with.

'terminal' here denotes 'X terminal emulator, e.g. xterm'

"Does not work", well, in a way it does indeed not, because it

But hold it, X and xterm and all the terminal emulators for

you will find it really professionally or just forget about it
