Subject: bug#6616: S-TAB is mismapped in the *Help* buffer
Date: Sun, 11 Jul 2010 23:20:22 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C3AB426.2040500@gmail.com> (raw)

  The manual, (info "(emacs) Help Mode"), says "S-TAB"
moves the point to the previous cross reference when in
the *Help* buffer.  But, trying from a default emacs
shows "S-TAB" is translated to "C-y":

     emacs -Q
       ...                 ; Get to a *Help* buffer
     C-h k S-TAB

     C-y (translated from <S-tab>) runs the command yank, which is an
     interactive compiled Lisp function in `simple.el'.

My guess is that the right place to change this is
in the `button-buffer-map'.  This way the change will
propagate to other modes that use button-buffer-map as
a parent keymap, including:

     apropos.el          ; apropos-mode-map
     emacs-lisp/debug.el ; debugger-mode-map
     help-mode.el        ; help-mode-map (this bug)
     man.el              ; Man-mode-map
     progmodes/etags.el  ; select-tags-table-mode-map
     startup.el          ; splash-screen-keymap
