The latest development code contains improved support for overriding key bindings. It used to be that you had to maintain a complete copy of whichever key table or subtable defined the bindings that you wanted to override. That was because the key table facility didn't handle multiple bindings to the same key combination very well. One of the obvious problems with this limitation was that, once copied, you'd no lnger automatically pick up further official changes to that same key table or subtable.
This has been fixed within the latest development code. If there are multiple bindings (this also applies to map, hotkey, and ignore) to the same key combination, the last one silently wins. To customize just a few bindings, therefore, your customized file should start with an include to pick up the official file, and then just specify the customizations that you'd like to make. Note that your include just needs to specify the file name - its path isn't necessary. Brltty "knows" that it's already reading your customized copy, so, when doing the include, it skips over it and finds the official copy. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
