Yes, and besides, mc.menu does not use "&" also, it stores hotkeys in a separate field. So consistency dictates using the same approach in the hotlist - these two constructs are similar in many respects. However, my patch cannot handle functional keys, only "printable" keys. I don't know how to handle other keys. Given that mc has no subsystem for reading keymaps from configuration files, I think there's nothing in current mc where I could borrow such code from. Suggestions are welcome, of course. While we are at it, here's one more major reason to implement ASAP keymap configuration via config files: with the current support for terminals, many keys simply do not work. For example, on my Konsole, shift-arrows and ctrl-pgdn in the editor do not work at all. Now the only way to work around this is to hack the keymap in the source (to bind these functions to some other keys that work) and recompile. Needless to say, there must be a more convenient way to do this. -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
