Bryce, That is an interesting thought, but a quick check in gedit and Pharo shows that there is a difference - gedit behaves much more as I would expect than does Pharo. That is with with both defaults under Ubuntu's keyboard options, and with a couple of tweaks that looked promising. There is a shift/numeric option that makes shift-control-arrow work though, so there still could be options that would explain everything, especially if you have something set that forces numbers. Which distribution do you use?
Take your time; let me know when you are ready to fiddle with it. Thanks! Bill Wilhelm K.

Better support for virtual keys would be great. I frequently use the numeric keypad with num-lock off, and the keys are largely ignored on Linux; the win32 VM works as expected. It is not my intention to dump work on you, but if you are hacking the vm anyway... Please let me know if I can help out with running down keycodes, etc. > Thanks, first let me finish the current task in Exupery, then once I've got that stabilised, I'll look at compiling the Freetype support. After that we'll see how much more time is available. I'm already maintaining an Linux VM for Exupery, so adding a few features for Pharo shouldn't be too much extra work. Bryce P.S. I just tested. Here the numeric keys work as numeric keys with the num-lock selected or not. So I suspect it's configurable via X without needing a VM modification. _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project
