https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=231842 Summary: gvim doesn't allow Alt keybindings Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bwalle@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: mfabian@novell.com, mrueckert@novell.com In gvim on SUSE, keybindings with Alt (or Meta, but vim treats them equally) don't work. For example open gvim and execute :set wak=no # disable keybindings for the menu (but they don't work either) :tabnew :map <M-1> 1gt :map <M-1> 2gt This should allow you to switch with Alt-1 and Alt-2 between tabs, but this don't work. The workaround is to disable X input method (with ":imdisable"). Then it works. The bug isn't related to SUSE patches, same problem with the vim7 version from upstream! It don't happen on (some) other distributions like Ubuntu, the difference I reconised was that they don't set "X Input Method" as default input method for Gtk application. Maybe there's some relation to #131498 and to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=331369. In the code it seems that GtkEventKey->state field has set Meta1 correctly. So the code in (vim) gui_gtk_x11.c:key_press_event() seems to be the cause. Can you please decide if the bug should be forwarded to Upstream? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
