Many thanks for your explanation though I don't understand it. Let me give you two examples for why I think that urxvt has keybindings that interfere with my emacs keybindings. I use ALT-s for `save-buffer' which works e.g. in roxterm, konsole or gnome-terminal. But urxvt displays message: Scrollback search, see the urxvtperl manpage for details. (escape cancels), (?i) Second, I use f4 for save-buffer, which also works in the previous mentioned terminals but only inserts a `~' in urxvt. The function keys from f5 to f12 however work. henry -- web: http://literaturlatenight.de jabberID: [email protected] _______________________________________________ rxvt-unicode mailing list [email protected] http://lists.schmorp.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rxvt-unicode
