Subject: disable, replace binding in method-map
Date: Sun, 17 May 2020 10:59:06 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <871rnipn79.fsf@ralph.puteracy.com> (raw)
A simpler version of my earlier pos
1. `set-input-method` + `greek-babel`
turns an emacs buffer from U:** to BGU:
the entire keyboard is transformed to type greek;
most bindings are obvious- a = alpha, b = beta ...
but a few are handled differently from other greek maps i work with,
and these are the ones i want to a. preempt, then b.replace;
a. theta- j, sigma- s/c, ksi-x, chi-q
b. q s c x
2. i had a similar problem with org-mode
my global key settings worked as i wanted in org-mode,
unless they were set to some other task in org-mode-map
(bindings- mode trumping- minor trumps major, and major trumps global)
SO, i disabled the keys which
a. are globally bound in my emacs
but
b. org-mode-map had given its own special tasks-
this freed up such keys so they could work "globally;"
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(define-key org-mode-map "\eh" nil)))
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(define-key org-mode-map "\ea" nil)))
------------------------------------------
can't i do the same with greek-babel?
1. for theta (i won't need to remap 'j',
but i must preempt 'q' so i can give it a new job here
(add-hook 'input-method-hook
(lambda ()
(define-key input-method-greek-babel-map "j" nil))
(lambda ()
(define-key input-method-greek-babel-map "q" nil))
(lambda ()
(define-key input-method-greek-babel-map "q"
'θ)))
the two issues i can't successfully google are
1. does 'input-method-hook work like 'input-mode-hook?
2. how do i disable a binding, then rebind the key to a new job?
