Subject: bug#45536: [PATCH] Pretty-print keys without <> around modifiers
Date: Tue, 29 Dec 2020 10:31:45 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <188d3006-24cf-4597-8c30-1009c62b269f@default> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <ED8E3FF1-4DFE-47FE-860E-36A8F939A4EE@acm.org>
> It is a bit inconsistent that keys are described as C-x and <return> but <C-
> return>. It would be more logical to write C-<return>. The key parser will
> happily accept either, but descriptions without modifiers in <> brackets are
> more legible, and the result is easier to understand and explain.
>
> Attached is a patch which adapts the code that pretty-prints keys. This is a
> change for human consumption only; it seems unlikely to affect compatibility.
> With the patch, <C-M-backspace> is now printed as C-M-<backspace>.
>
> I'd be happy to update the manuals accordingly, and add a NEWS entry if
> required.
