I wrote: maybe gtk-theme-name = Emacs will already work. That didn't work but one apparently can include files. The following line appended to ~/.gtkrc-2.0 enabled emacs keybindings for me in the text entry widgets: include /usr/X11R6/share/themes/Emacs/gtk-2.0-key/gtkrc Don't know if that's the proper way to do that but it seems to work ok (no warnings when starting gtk2 apps). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

X11 / keyboard emacs?
Well, I'm stumped.
I can't figure out why, in FreeBSD (or at least the one I have running
here) the keyboard mapping for editing all the text widgets (in X) is
not using emacs keybindings. The only way I can get control-a and
control-e, control-d etc, to work is if I run xfce4 and choose Emacs in
the Keyboard settings.
a peek at that file:
/usr/X11R6/share/themes/Emacs/gtk-2.0-key/gtkrc
shows me things like:
#
# Bindings for GtkTextView and GtkEntry
#
binding gtk-emacs-text-entry
{
bind ctrlb { move-cursor (logical-positions, -1, 0) }
bind shiftctrlb { move-cursor (logical-positions, -1, 1) }
bind ctrlf { move-cursor (logical-positions, 1, 0) }
bind shiftctrlf { move-cursor (logical-positions, 1, 1) }
// snip //
What I don't understand is how to make that global. That is, applied to
all Window Managers. If I run AfterStep or WindowMaker, these keyboard
bindings do not apply and I can't figure out how to make them apply
irrespective of the window manager currently running.

Help?
