The sub-statement
hotKey gui
{Shift|Lock|Control|Mod1|Mod2|Mod3|Mod4|Mod5|none}...

Threads
The sub-statement
numberOfThreads number_of_threads
specifies how many working threads the xposextool program should use for compression (Compression) (Compression). The default value of 4 is reasonable even on machines with only one single-core-processor. The special value of 0 means single tasking.

If file_name ends with .html or .htm, the messages are output in HTML format, else in plain text format. The default destination depends on the user executing the xposextool proxy program: /var/opt/XSOXposeXrecord/logs/xposextool-user_name.html.
The sub-statement
