mc and ctrl-x

2011-09-14 Thread Ladislav Hagara
Hi,

please, is possible to give ctrl-x back as shortcut for extended
keybindings mode. In new stable version 4.7.5.4 [1] you removed it.

According to #2586 [2] you prefer ctrl-x as shortcut for !WordRight
action. Do you have some stats how many users really need it for
!WordRight action?

Imho, ctrl-x should work as shortcut for extended keybindings mode
again, it is quite used:

Compare directories   C-x d
View diff files   C-x C-d
External panelize C-x !
Active VFS list   C-x a
Background jobs   C-x j
C-x p sequence copies the current path name to the command

Screenshots of mc 4.7.5.3 and 4.7.5.4 with and without ctrl-x [0].

Oops, sorry, that is my fault.

ctrl-x is removed only in editor. In file manager in main branch
(mc-4.8.0-pre2), it works as before. When I backported #2586 to stable branch,
I removed by mistake the key binding to ExtMap1 action in [main] section
instead of EditExtMode action in [editor] section. And EditExtMode is absent
in keymap file. That is another bug.

 Imho, ctrl-x should work as shortcut for extended keybindings mode
 again, it is quite used:

Surely.

You can edit /etc/mc/mc.keymap to restore the ctrl-x behaviour in file manager:
ExtMap1 = ctrl-x

I created a ticket:

Thank you for the bugreport.

Can you not override this in your desktop settings 
preferences, or the shell you use to start mc from?

BTW, why did you edit only misc/mc.keymap.default in that ticket and not
also misc/mc.keymap. Imho, both should be fixed.

mc.keymap is symlink to mc.keymap.default in repo. While creating the tarball,
symlinks are replaced by files which are pointed by symlinks. As a result,
mc.keymap and mc.keymap.default are identical files in tarball.
