making binds/scripts for only one class

[Mikhail Gaming]

there are videos on this, but I just want to put it simply.

for demo, I want Q to be +left and E to be +right
but only for demo. how is this done?

In Team Fortress 2/tf/cfg, there are .cfg files for each class. Put your binds in there to be only for that class. Then rebind those in each other class' .cfg file, otherwise the commands will leak.

demoman.cfg is
unbind "Q"
unbind "E"
bind "Q" "+left"
bind "E" "+right"

all other classes.cfg is
unbind "Q"
unbind "E"
bind "Q" "lastinv" (By default, Q is last weapon)
bind "E" "voicemenu 0 0" (By default, E is call for medic)

this is very useful, but I don't see cfg files for each class. only config.cfg and config_default .cfg

In that case, create them. Mine are as follows (they have to be named these EXACTLY):
demoman.cfg
engineer.cfg
heavyweapons.cfg
medic.cfg
pyro.cfg
scout.cfg
sniper.cfg
soldier.cfg
spy.cfg

In case you don't know how to create them (though you probably do), just create a new text file with the name of the cfg file you want it to be, then change the file extension to .cfg rather than .txt.

btw, you do not need to unbind keys to rebind them
