[Ebib-users] ebib-select-entry keymapping

[Abel M. <abe...@fr...>]

Dear users,

I've been in trouble to make ebib-select-entry work in the index buffer with
the [enter] default keymapping. BTW I've worked it out adding this
definition in my .ebibrc

(ebib-key index [(control m)] ebib-select-entry)

what makes both <C-m> and <return> work.

Regards,

this is quite mysterious to me... what happens when you hit return in the
index buffer? nothing at all? what does xev report for the return key?

I haven't got access to XWindow by now. I use a console under a NetBSD
system on the server side and I use PuTTY on the client side. Besides I'm
using emacs -not xemacs-.  The <return> key is working fine in general, it
was just in the ebib index buffer where I noticed it didn't work at all.

Note, XEmacs is not the X version of Emacs. It's a different implementation
of Emacs, originally based on the same code, but it's been a separate
project for a long time now. Both Emacs and XEmacs run on the console and
under X.

Well, in a console strange things sometimes happen to keypress events, and
certainly throwing ssh in the mix doesn't make it easier. ;-) Apparently
the return key in your setup sends C-m, which is not the same as
<return>. Ebib by default binds the latter to ebib-select-entry, not the
former.

I've made C-v <return> on the command line under the bash shell to find out.
Bash told me ^M so I tried C-m in .ebibrc and it works fine now.

Regards,
