Is it possible to make elinks interpret a left arrow key as a quit command when navigation has reached the beginning of the history list?
Here's why I ask: the mutt email client (and most of the rss readers I've tried) can be configured to invoke elinks to open urls found in an email or rss feed. What's more, these tools also use the elinks-style right and left keys to move forward and backwards through the changing views. But this pleasant continuity comes to an abrupt halt when I've drilled down into elinks and then want to make my way back into whatever tool it was that I using before it was invoked. Left arrow gets me back to the first url I visited, but no farther. I have to switch gears and type 'q' or 'Q' in order to quit elinks. Not only are these keys on the opposite side of my keyboard from the arrow keys -- which I admit is only a mild annoyance -- but I must also become consciously aware that I've reached a point where I must quit. I.e., the elinks program has asserted itself and forced me to switch my attention to it and away from what could have been a seemless meandering through the information that I am actually interested in. Please tell me if it's possible to make elinks "get out of the way" as all good tools do. If it isn't possible yet, where do I make the feature request? _______________________________________________ elinks-users mailing list [email protected] http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/elinks-users
