[Scwm-devs] event question

[Scott L. <sl...@cs...>]

I've been thinking about the event rewrite.  I'm trying to write
up a proposed interface to binding events based on the protocol
Greg suggested in the doc/dev directory.

I think we want to support the ability to bind key sequences
to actions.  I ran into a situation that I don't know what the
right behavior should be and I'd like opinions.

Suppose the user has bound a bunch of keys to "F1 <key>" where
they are basically using F1 as a prefix key for key events to
send to the window manager.  What do you think should happen
if they type "F1 b" where this key sequence has not been bound
to anything?  Should Scwm send "F1 b" to the application, send
"b" to the application, or drop the event on the floor?
Or should it do something else entirely?
