Hallo Taylor,

thank you for the link. It is good to know about this topic. However i
am using GVim.
I've found this behavior so far on debian 6.0 and ubuntu 10.10.

Thanks
Anton


On my gvim (with GTK2/Gnome2 GUI, running on openSUSE with Gnome window-manager) hitting Alt-Space triggers the same menu as clicking the icon at top left of the Vim "screen", i.e., the one with Minimize / Unmaximize / Move / Resize // [ ] Always on Top / ( ) Always on Visible Workspace / (*) Only on This Workspace / Move to Workspace Left / Move to Workspace Right / Move to Workspace Up / Move to Workspace Down / Move to Another Workspace // Close

This happens even with 'winaltkeys' set to "no", i.e., it appears that the window manager grabs the Alt-Space keystroke before gvim has a chance to see it. It happens the same way in any program dispaying through X11 (when done in a konsole window, it triggers the menu for moving or resizing the konsole window itself, and neither konsole nor the console application [bash or vim or whatever] running in it see the keystroke).

If I try Alt+Space in Console Vim running in the Linux console (e.g. after hitting Ctrl-Alt-Fn where 1 <= n <= 6, and if necessary logging in with username and password -- Ctrl-Alt-F7 would go back to X11 if started), Alt-Space gives me Esc followed by Space.


Best regards,
Tony.
