Re: Temporarily unbind a keysym in an extension.

[Marcel]

Ding it with on_key_press and forwarding it to tt_write seems to work. I had to extract the relevant attributes and do some calculation to find out what combinations of Control, Meta and Shift are active, but it looks like it got it.

Thanks again for the help.

I am developing a perl extension and have the use case where I would like to

The normal way to do this is by calling the bind_action method, although I am
not sure it's particularly suitable for frequent redefines.

If you temporarily want to take over the keyboard, you can temporarily
->enable your own key_press and/or tt_write handlers, as e.g.
searchable-scrollback does, and this way override normal processing of
these events.

Other than that, I don't think there is a way.
