Forwarding to accessibility list, seems relevant there too...
-------- Forwarded Message -------- From: Thorsten Wilms <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Usability] Input Events to Action Mapping Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2007 12:00:02 +0200 Hi! A proposal to move the mapping of input events to actions form an application to a system-wide level: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/2007/04/10/event-to-action-mapping-1/ All feedback welcome, including on style, terminology and grammar :) Important questions are: do you want it? How can it be made to happen? GNOME Terminal's shortcuts, adding shift to the common mappings to maintain console mappings like Ctrl-C for termination has been mentioned as a problem here a few times. An advanced implementation of my proposal would include the ability the change console shortcuts like Ctrl-C to something else. Besides possible improvemnts on my design document, next on my list is a mapping configuration dialog, where I currently see some scary complexity. All input and help welcome. -- CALUM BENSON, Usability Engineer Sun Microsystems Ireland mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] GNOME Desktop Group http://ie.sun.com +353 1 819 9771 Any opinions are personal and not necessarily those of Sun Microsystems _______________________________________________ gnome-accessibility-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-accessibility-list
