When reading it, I get one more question in mind :-) For an urwid based lfm I would like to set my own keybindings in a vim-like way, e.g. I don't want to use the Up and Down key, but 'j' and 'k' for scrolling to the next line. Is there a urwid specific way to define those keybindings or would be similar to lfm, where I just define a function which goes to the next item in a 'list'!? > Okay, I hope that any of this helps... Yes, thanks a lot! Greetings! Fabian _______________________________________________ Urwid mailing list [email protected] http://lists.excess.org/mailman/listinfo/urwid
