Hi,
I had this issue with shift-insert not working in st which annoyed me a
lot again while setting up a new box today, so I looked into it.
`kpress` first invokes `kmap` to handle custom keys which override
default behaviour. In `kmap` this condition
if(key[i].k == k && (key[i].mask == 0 || key[i].mask & state))
return (char*)key[i].s;
is always met when you press a key which is defined in config.h in `key`
with 0 mask, e.g.,
{ XK_Insert, 0, "\033[2~" },
If you want to use XK_Insert with shift, you never come to the place it
is handled in `kpress`. You can remove it from `key` in config.h. This
works with minor side effects, e.g. not able to enter insert mode in vi
by pressing Insert, which I don't do anyway. Might have some effects for
Emacs users?
However, you can also check state == 0 in addition to key[i].mask == 0
in `kmap` which I guess was the intent of the inner parentheses, in
other words "Do mask and state match".
cheers,
