I am developing a software that read user input from the root window (the "desktop"). While i am writing the code it is comfortable to have one shortcut theme.
While testing the program it is necessary to have a lot of the shortcuts disabled.

As I prefer use keyboard only - I would like a key combo to switch between the shortcut-themes.
I have already configured a shortcut to go to the configure shortcuts panel, but then I have to hit ald+d then alt+s to switch between the available schemes .
As I want to change scheme fast I would like to know about a simpler solution.

Any hint in the right direction is appricated. Scripting, etcetera.
So far I have tested to have a default shortcut-file which is a link to konosleXYZshortcuts.rc, and then change the target for that link.
I also have tested to directly rename the files to a default themefile (yes - of course I have a backup) . Neither is working.

I use fvwm with Konsole as my preferred terminal.
And yes - I know that I can configure fvwm to do that for me - but that involves to use the the command fakekeypress which is rumored to soon be removed from the code.
I also know that I can use external tools such as xbindkeys, xdotool etcetera. But for now I would like to learn more about configure the konsole terminal.
