Re: [Notion-general] "Insane key combination" when attempting binding

[Arnout E. <no...@bz...>]

Hello Wojtek,

Thanks for your message. Certainly when a long-time user like yourself is
confused by an error message this is a problem, so this was not an unnecessary
post IMHO :).

I've taken a look at the code and think the updated messages in
https://github.com/raboof/notion/pull/25/commits/e9f90c43d33b9d79d5d05e4407f48a3bb3c9b48e
would make more sense, what do you think?


Kind regards,

Arnout
