Bindkeys

I am new to using skill and I have been trying to customize my bindkeys.   I have been struggling trying to get the syntax correct to use the lowercase letter "g" to turn the grid on and upper case "G" to turn it off.  I have been trying to wade through the documentation but for a newbie it's like trying to read the health care bill.  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    Hi Lawrence,

    Can you (or anyone) please explain how the line

    hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Key>g" "hiGetCurrentWindow()->drawGridOn=!hiGetCurrentWindow()->drawGridOn")

    works?

    Thanks
