Xbindkeys and the equals key

Question

How does one bind a key to the "=" key using xbindkeys?

I have tried "=", "equal", and "equals" but none of these seem to work.

Answer 1

Just use the string equal without quotes. For example, to launch xclock with Alt+ =:

"xclock"
  Alt+equal

To find out what to use, use:

xbindkeys --key
