Subject: bug#14818: Keybindings for page motion not easy to remember
Date: Tue, 09 Jul 2013 17:25:34 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3txk3bf2w.fsf@carbon.jhcloos.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <mvma9lxus6e.fsf@hawking.suse.de> (Andreas Schwab's message of "Mon, 08 Jul 2013 14:55:53 +0200")
Since this stems from my comment on the list....
I didn't mean to imply that I do not remember where backward-page and
forward-page *are*, just that my fingers automatically start hitting
C-v to scroll down in buffers like *Help* before I have a chance to
consider paging down.
A different binding wouldn't fix that.
And as Andreas notes, ESC [ is the start of many vt100/xterm-style
commands, including the octets sent by function keys.
