From: awykel AT channelpoint DOT com (Alex Wykel) Subject: B19.1:bind will not bind usinf the -f option. 17 Sep 1998 07:38:08 -0700 Message-ID: <915D4A5037A6D011957D006097198E47013DBAF3.cygnus.gnu-win32@goat.channelpoint.com> To: "'gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com'" When binding keys using the -f option (filename) the command appears to read the file which is passed but none of the bindings from the file are 'binded'. To reproduce: Create a bind file: $ bind -p > keybinding.out Then edit the output file change one of the bindings. I changed the beginning-of-line to "\e[1~" or the [HOME] key on my computer. Then I saved the file. And tried to use the '-f' option and pass the file to bind. $ bind -f keybinding.out Upon trying to use the new binding nothing happened. Investigating the binding for the function showed that the new binding was never made. $ bind -q beginning-of-line beginning-of-line can be invoked via "\C-a" Using the normal bind procedure works fine. I also noticed that if you process the command from within EMACS using the -p option there is no output. I have not experimented with this enough to figure out what the problem is. -Alex Wykel Test Engineer ChannelPoint Inc. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
