Subject:	cygwin emacs: broken key mappings
Date:	Wed, 27 Nov 2002 15:05:05 +0100
MIME-Version:	1.0
X-MIME-Autoconverted:	from quoted-printable to 8bit by delorie.com id gARE5MO01153

The emacs C-c, C-h and C-SPC keys are broken:

    C-c   maps to C-g
    C-SPC maps to SPC
    C-h   maps to DEL

To verify this just enter

    M-x global-key-binding 'broken_key´

and emacs prompts you to set 'key´ to a command. 'key´ in the broken cases
is simply wrong, as I listed above.

Under these conditions emacs turns out to be a real adventure. You want help
and you end up deleting things. Want to quit? No way, unless you do it the
hard way: 

    save-buffers-kill-emacs
