i *just* switched to a dvorak keyboard, why are all the escape
sequences still assuming a qwerty layout? emacs is now completly broken
on my system!!! for *everything* else the transition was flawless!

I use dvorak as well. What OS/version of Emacs are you using?

Can you give an example of an escape sequence assuming a QWERTY layout?

i am using the carbon build on OS X:
  http://macemacsjp.sourceforge.jp/en/

an example is typing C-q C-j sends the sequence for C-x C-c, whereas me
typing C-x C-c is being interpreted as C-b C-i!!

interestingly, console mode works (even other builds over ssh), so this
is a carbon specific bug!

Try checking emacs out from CVS by following these instructions:

If you had read the document,  you would see that it instructs you to:

1. Install texinfo (if necessary, and it's probably _not_ necessary).

2. Check out emacs from CVS.

3. Configure it _with_ carbon and _without_ X.

Why do you think that you will somehow get the X11 build if you build
it in this way? I do it every other week or so, and I'm using the
carbon build.

That shouldn't be happening. I'll report it to emacs-devel at some
point, unless you or someone else gets to it first.

Re: dvorak

[Shug Boabby]

same thing happens in the official CVS build :-(

anyone using a Carbon build can confirm this by setting the
international system preference to a DVORAK layout and noting that in
emacs the control sequences follow a QWERTY layout

Hm. Doesn't happen to me. I went to System Prefs and changed by
keyboard layout to dvorak, and all the emacs commands work with the
correct dvorak keys.

Are you sure you're not doing something else?
