Subject: bug#39847: Document how users can make text-zoom keys same as browser
Date: Wed, 04 Mar 2020 00:31:11 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <874kv5pfhs.8.fsf@jidanni.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <877e05hu32.5.fsf@jidanni.org>
I don't want to have to pick up a mouse just to zoom text.
In all browsers I can do CTRL++ and CTRL+- to zoom and unzoom text.
If even in all browsers I can do it with just the keyboard, why should I
have to go find and plug in a mouse to do it in emacs, of all things?
Or, why... should I have to use the current "most curious" key sequence
to zoom text... for somebody's historical reasons.
So curious that it needs a big explanation in the manual, as no new user
would have imagined more keys than just CTRL++ and CTRL+- are needed.
And no recipe of how to untangle things shall ever even be documented,
until the very last user of "C-- to make the argument negative" kicks
the bucket or something.
Nope, no recipe of how a user could make emacs just use CTRL++ and
CTRL+- shall ever be added to the manual. As the user is supposed to
engineer it himself as if it was as simple as binding functions to keys.
