I have used mythweb to add a jump point to mythweather of Ctrl+W.
Hitting Ctrl-W on the keyboard works, so I am that far.
However, I am unable to get it to work from the remote. lirc
documentation says to send a control key with a backslash and capital
letter, which doesn't work. I have tried all of the following in my
lircrc:
\W
Ctrl W
Control W
Ctrl-W
Control-W
Ctrl+W
Control+W
Some of these caused a message similar to:
LircClient warning: attempt to convert '' to a key sequence failed.
Fix your key mappings.
to be printed, with the lirc config value in the quotes. Some of the
keys silently failed.
It turns out that the state of the control key was being lost as the
event was passed around in myth. I posted a patch to the dev list that
retains the status of any modifiers specified on the config line. When
using native LIRC in myth, the patch lets you use a config line like
"Ctrl+W" to pass a control W.
