I wanted to bind ctrl-PgUp for some function. The manual gives me to understand that
bind index "\e[5;5~" next-unread would work. The help (press "?") deceptively(!!) shows the sequence as being bound to that function, but pressing the key gives a "key not bound" error. A solution is elusive until one uses what turns out to be the essential function what-key. It says <C-Prev>. The first problem is that X11 calls the key Prior, not Prev, but that's irrelevant if mutt invents its own names. Accoring to the manual, I expect bind index \C<Prior> next-unread to work too, as key names seem to be similar to X11 key names. Could chapter 5. of the manual please be extend: * Make it clear that mutt uses its own key names for keys like Prior. A list would help, but a 1-paragraph explanation of this fact with a pointer to what-key (and example use) would be a good start. * Make it clear that terminal character sequences like \e[... work sometimes, but not always. * Make it clear that "^" will NOT work for control, and \C must be used. This is annoying when the help always shows ctrl as "^" but one can't actually use it. Greetings, Volker -- Volker Kuhlmann http://volker.dnsalias.net/ Please do not CC list postings to me.
