Hello, I find it convenient having the keystrokes M-f-<space>-<letter> do the same thing as M-f-<letter>. The first sequence opens the "File" menu, shows me what <letter> to enter to obtain a given command (it is underlined in the menu entry); once I know it, I just do M-f-<letter>, and get the right command immediatly. It makes it easier (to me, at least) to remember the keybindings. Most commands on the menus are already like that. The "export" and "view" commands, in the "File" menu are not, however. Is that the case only for "emacs" keybindings, or for "cua" too? If anyone is interested, I appended a little patch for the $LYX_DIR/lib/bind/menus.bind file. Cheers, Etienne ps : I use 0.12.1pre5. Sorry if the issue has already been treated here. ====================================================================== --- menus.bind.orig Mon Apr 20 22:14:26 1998 +++ menus.bind Sun Aug 30 19:50:51 1998 @@ -35,15 +35,15 @@ \bind "M-f a" "buffer-write-as" \bind "M-f r" "buffer-reload" \bind "M-f d" "buffer-view" -\bind "M-f v" "buffer-view-ps" -\bind "M-f u" "buffer-typeset" -\bind "M-f e" "buffer-typeset-ps" +\bind "M-f i" "buffer-view-ps" +\bind "M-f v" "buffer-typeset" +\bind "M-f u" "buffer-typeset-ps" \bind "M-f p" "buffer-print" \bind "M-f f" "buffer-fax" -\bind "M-f m" "buffer-export latex" -\bind "M-f l" "buffer-export linuxdoc" -\bind "M-f i" "buffer-export ascii" -\bind "M-f z" "buffer-export custom" +\bind "M-f e l" "buffer-export latex" +\bind "M-f e d" "buffer-export linuxdoc" +\bind "M-f e t" "buffer-export ascii" +\bind "M-f e m" "buffer-export custom" \bind "M-f x" "lyx-quit" \bind "M-f space" "menu-open File" #bind "M-f l" "file-last" # Not yet implemented. -- +++ the lyx project user mailing list +++ To unsubscribe from this list send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the **Subject** unsubscribe.
