IMO this change in the manual of the text I wrote is ridiculous:

The original text was completely neutral, whereas the new one is so
grotesque that it's at best suitable for anti.texi, and at worst is an
insult to the reader's intelligence.

To add insult to injury, the ChangeLog entry accuses me of being
lopsided towards Windows:

	* msdog.texi (Windows Keyboard): Explain that Windows was incompatible
	with Emacs, not vice versa.

Such incidents make me wonder why I still spend almost all my free
time working on Emacs, if what I get in return is this kind of
rudeness.

Personal integrity and principles?
Because Emacs is worth it?
Because we need you?

It is a joke of course, but one of those jokes that may be dividing, not 
uniting.  A good example IMHO of why it is better to joke about oneself 
than about others.

I could write in length about this, but just want to make a short note. 
The kind of thinking that is behind this joke tends to surface when a 
group is in a stressed position. (I believe it is rather similar to the 
stress that came up when I pointed to what I think are some problems on 
the w32 side.)

There is a press now to fix the errors and get a release done. I think 
everyone agrees on that though we may disagree about details regarding 
what bugs to fix and so on.
Could we please just accept that there is some stress now and that some 
bad things happens then?

I would be glad if those changes to msdogs.texi were changed back to 
something more neutral. Let us avoid to write down our group thinking in 
the manual.

Yes, I agree.  I think we should spend our energy improving free software, not
vilifying Microsoft.

"more like" ?  

For all practical purposes, there's no difference, so the new text is
much worse in this respect too!

The change is attributed to RMS, so I don't see that it accuses

I wonder sometimes too -- but that's because of the obvious inability
from our great leader to realize that there is no such thing as
bug-free software, not even Emacs.

I suggest that at least the above sentence must be removed, as it 
incorrectly gives the designers of Windows credit for the CUA standard.

In fact, I suggest that advertising Windows in this text and including 
it in a Windows specific section of the manual is inappropriate, as many 
systems now use the control key as the default modifier for their CUA 
keybindings (Gnome and KDE for example).

I think you're reading too much into that text, it does not imply any 
accusation to me.

Well, it is a bit blurry whether C-z C-x C-c C-v is actually part of CUA.

IIRC, they come from the Mac (or Lisa) as the "Apple+Z" etc keys, and
since Apple made revisions to the CUA spec, these bindings ended up in
Windoze as C-z etc.

But it is right that M$ didn't invent CUA.

Yes, although I seldom use Windoze for any serious work (expect
reading my company mail) I still prefer to use the CUA bindings to be
compatible with a lot of other FREE applications that I use -- and
Windoze when I have to :-).

So this basically has _nothing_ to do with Windoze as such ... it has
something to do with the majority of "modern" gui applications which
are (more or less) CUA compliant.

So I agree that this is the wrong part of the Manual to put this info.

It was requested by Windows users, on the pretense that Windows users
will be surprised by the different bindings of the CUA keys.  If you
think we should reiterate the same info elsewhere in the manual, I see
no harm saying it in some other place as well.  The text is very short
anyway.

  Common User Access (CUA) is a set of guidelines for the user
  interface to personal computer operating systems and computer
  programs, developed by IBM and first published in 1987 as part of
  their Systems Application Architecture. Used originally in the OS/2
  and Microsoft Windows operating systems, parts of the CUA standard

CUA did draw inspiration from Apple's Himan Interface Guidelines.
Interestingly enough.

Is "Himan" short for "highway man"?  It would explain the single
trigger button and the design of point-and-click interfaces.
Threatening a computer seems like a natural thing to do.  Gratifying.
And it also explains how one can often get the computer scared into
doing more things by double-clicking.  Now what happens if the mouse
actually is loaded?

IBM, though a lot of the guidelines came from Apple's HIG from what I 
understand.

This was interesting:

The Cut command is [Shift]+[Del]; Copy is [Ctrl]+[Ins]; Paste is [Shift]+[Ins];

So is Ctrl-C/V/X really part of CUA at all?

I found someone saying that is was added in CUA 2.0. I have a vauge 
memory of seeing something like that before too.

      Common User Access (CUA) is a set of guidelines for the user
      interface to personal computer operating systems and computer
      programs, developed by IBM and first published in 1987 as part of
      their Systems Application Architecture. Used originally in the OS/2

There is a miscommunication here.  He is not asking about the Emacs
CUA mode.  He's asking about what was in the spec that the MS Windows
designers started with.

If that is true, what was the date of CUA 2.0?  And did MS Windows
copy those commands from CUA 2.0?

Why does it matter whether it was IBM, Apple or M$ who invented the
C-z C-x C-c C-v shortcuts (and thus broke compatibility with Emacs)?

No matter what we think or feel, or whether history is on our side,
most "modern" applications use these bindings -- including GNOME, KDE
and Firefox, so today it is Emacs which is "incompatible" with "common
practice".

That's a fact, and trying to blame "the designers of CUA" for creating
a consistent (and IMHO excellent) interface is plain silly IMO.

So for users who like the consistency with their other application,
Emacs 22 has CUA mode which provide the functionality without
breaking existing Emacs bindings.

So IMO (but I'm biased of course), there's no reason to have a
negative attitude towards CUA at all -- if people like those bindings,
just use them.  And that's it.

I certainly remember reading IBM CUA Guidelines a decade ago
there were no such keys as C-x C-c C-v defined.  So it is unfair to
blame CUA designers for defining these stupid keys.  On the contrary,
they did a good job by defining neutral keys: S-DEL for cut, C-INS for
Copy, and S-INS for Paste.  I can't track down who first introduced
C-x C-c C-v.  Quite likely it was Microsoft trying to mimic Apple's
special keys Command-x Command-c Command-v at the time when the Windows
key was not yet duplicated from Apple's Command key.

This is especially important for Emacs newbies whose first question about
Emacs nowadays is how to change C-x C-c C-v keys to cut, copy and paste.

So you claim to have invented the concept of doing cut, copy, and paste 
via keyboard commands, and that Emacs was the first program to do that?

Otherwise, this whole argument is silly.

I haven't read the actual text recently, but I think it makes sense to
mention that the current bindings predate CUA's, not to brag about it or to
complain about CUA's lack of respect for Emacs's choices, but so as to
explain why the current bindings don't play well with CUA: it's
a historical accident.

Jumping in...

I don't know if it's true or important whether there are good reasons (I
think so) for Emacs's bindings or CUA's bindings, or whether the bindings or
the incompatibility are just historical accidents.

I'm not sure it's good to burden the user with such explanations. I would
simply point out the difference and the incompatibility. I would mention
that some people prefer one set of bindings and other people prefer the
other set of bindings - and both are available in Emacs! No need, in the
doc, to justify or try to convince people to use one or the other. Just let
readers know that there are two choices.

If there are other incompatibilities between CUA-mode and other parts of
Emacs (I have no idea), then that can also be pointed out. That might be one
reason that some people would prefer "Emacs Classique" over "Emacs CUA". If
so, it would be worth pointing out, not to sell "Emacs Classique", but to
inform users more about the consequences of the two choices.

As to mentioning priority, I don't think it matters, so Occam says
fuggeddabbowdit. It's not important that Emacs bindings were first. It might
be important that there are good reasons to use Emacs's bindings, but prior
design is not one of them, and it need not be mentioned.

 - Drew, who uses Emacs Classique, but CUA outside of Emacs when he has to

(What? Does Emacs have an outside?)

> a historical accident.

The current text suggests it was done deliberately:

  Many key combinations (known as ``keyboard shortcuts'') that have
conventional uses in MS-Windows programs conflict with traditional
Emacs commands.  This conflict arose because the designers of the CUA
interface implemented by MS-Windows did not try to avoid conflict with
Emacs.

The second sentense is superfluous at best.

The text continues:

  Examples of conflicts include @kbd{C-c}, @kbd{C-x}, @kbd{C-z},
@kbd{C-a}, and @kbd{W-@key{SPC}}.  You can redefine some of them with
meanings more like the MS-Windows meanings by enabling CUA Mode
(@pxref{CUA Bindings}).


As I've tried to say, the CUA (or rather C-[zxcv]) bindings are
no longer MS-Windows specific ...  the text could just as well
have said GNOME [in a non-MS-DOG context].

Also the text is overly cryptic ... why not just say:

  You can resolve these conflicts by enabling CUA Mode.

Because it is wrong?

This does not actually resolve the conflicts.  Only completely
different bindings would achieve that.

Instead, it implements compromises which allow both sets of bindings
to remain mostly usable while only moderately stepping on each other's
toes.

That isn't the point at all.  The point is that we did not ignore
Windows when we chose the Emacs commands.  We chose them in 1975
when Microsoft did not even exist.

Formally yes, but if you enable CUA mode to get the C-zxcv bindings,
there is no real "conflict" ... as you would not expect to use C-v to
scroll the window.

And following the xref will give the details.

The issue is how to make Emacs and CUA bindings co-exist --
not invent a third set of key bindings.

Isn't that "resolving conflicts" ?

I haven't looked at those articles (too much pdf to download on my slow
dialup) but my recollection is that Windows followed the convention
already in use by Apple, though Apple used the command key (the
"pretzel" key) which was missing from Windows keyboards.

The mnemonics I use for those keys, and which I thought were commonly
known, are:

  Cmd-X   cut   - the X looks like a pair of scissors
  Cmd-C   copy  - C is for copy
  Cmd-V   paste - the V looks like the nozzel of a glue pot.

I think I first heard these when the 128K Macs came out.  It also
wouldn't surprise me if Apple was following a convention establised for
the Zerox Star.

Right. At that time Windows went with IBM's CUA, which had the
more-difficult-to-remember SHIFT-INS, CTRL-INS and (I think) CTRL-DEL. I
guess they still work.

They do, but in case anyone's curious it's Shift-Delete for Cut, not
Ctrl-Delete (which at that time did nothing but later became delete next
word).  Shift-Insert is Paste, and Ctrl-Insert is Copy.

I think I have written text which gets the relevant point across
and which is likely not to make anyone feel offended.
