Problem with latest CVS version of keyboard.c

Problem with latest CVS version of keyboard.c

[David Ponce]

Hi All,

I just did a "make bootstrap" with today CVS Emacs 21 and noticed
that the keyboard mapping don't work correctly now :-(

A few examples of what I observed:

C-x C-f is interpreted as C-f and I see "Search for string:" prompt
in the minibuffer instead of "Find file: ...".

C-x C-c just displays C-c C-c in the minibuffer!

Many other keyboard shortcuts don't work as expected.

The problem has gone after I reverted keyboard.c to the version before
these changes:

2002-06-11  Stefan Monnier  <monnier@cs.yale.edu>

        * keyboard.c (read_key_sequence):
        Remove prev_(fkey|keytran}_(map|start|end) since we don't want
        to pass things through those maps after downcasing events.
        Enforce that keytran_end <= fkey_start, i.e. that
        key-translation-map applies after function-key-map.
        Make sure that keytran can be done in the middle in the
        sequence.  Be careful not to throw away events past the one we
        downcase.

2002-06-11  Richard M. Stallman  <rms@gnu.org>

        * keyboard.c (readable_events): Ignore any number of
        FOCUS_IN_EVENT events and return 0 if nothing else in buffer.

I run GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt4.0.1381) of 2002-06-12.

Someone else got this problem?

Hope this will help.

Sincerely,
David

Hmm... I don't see it here.  I suspect that it's due to my change
(Richard's seems unrelated), but could you try to revert only one
of the two changes, just to make sure which of the two is posing
problems ?

Does it happen with `-q --no-site-file' ?
How about with/without -nw ?
Could you show us the content of your function-key-map
and key-translation-map ?

Doesn't happen here, with:

GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.0.2195) of 2002-06-12


                                                           /L/e/k/t/u
