Bad luck. I missed it, and nobody else was interested enough to reply. We now have patch manager on savannah.gnu.org. You may want to use it, although it doesn't seem to be well suited for discussions. More radical patches should be published in the list [EMAIL PROTECTED] > I'm asking because I have a few other patches (such as hotkeys in > hotlist) that I would like to contribute, and I just want to know > what is the procedure, and who is ultimately to decide whether to > include something or not.

Am I wrong? Everybody has limitations (time, competence, attention). I'm sorry that your patch was ignored. If it happens again, please use the patch manager.

What was implemented is the most low-level part. All dialogs and widgets are now getting the complete information about the keystrokes, including the modifiers. I wish I could implement the translation table, but it's probably to disruptive for the 4.6.0 release. Still it would be translation to the "logical keys" (e.g. Ctrl-PgDn) rather that to the actions (go to the last line). Maybe we could do both in one step? We need to think about it. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
