Cool! I want that. I would like to have morph specific table but with possible sharing I would like to have editor table (now defined as instance variables of the metaclasses) defined as ClassVar and instance Variables of the class so that we could share large table by default and have instance specific table if possible. pd2: Useful and related comment from Stef ".. A classVar Binding and an instance var binding. **All** the methods only access binding binding get initialized with the default table defined in Binding => we can have table binding sharing => we can have instance based customization. > > I believe the other Global keybindings should be a subset of this > generic keybinding mechanism. > > Fernando > > pd: From a previous mail: > > "... > So for example, if you want to delete any Morph from the system > by pressing cmd-w, you have to add the following binding: > > condition := GMCondition > compositeWith: > #( #understandsKeyBindingCommandCondition > #uneditedCondition ) ). > binding := GMKeyBinding > actingOn: $w asciiValue > modifiedBy: #(#command) > satisfying: condition > applying: #close. > m := Morph new. > m addKeyBinding: binding . > ... > " > > pd2: Useful and related comment from Stef > ".. > A classVar Binding and an instance var binding. > **All** the methods only access binding > binding get initialized with the default table defined in Binding > => we can have table binding sharing > => we can have instance based customization. >
