Re: Emacs on Windows ignoring "\C-)"

[Joe <joesmoe10@gmail.com>]

First off, thanks for the replies.  Now to address those replies:

> I don't see this problem on Windows XP SP2.

I'm beginning to suspect the problem is related to Windows 7.  Does
any one
running Vista or Windows 7 have this problem?

Sticky keys are off.

No, it completely ignores "C-)".  For example the key sequence:

"C-h k C-) g" results in "C-h k g".  Emacs describes the `self-insert-
command'
because that's what 'g' does.

Yes, "emacs -Q" also ignores "C-)".  I'm hesitant to file a bug report
because I
think I might have done something silly on my system.  I'd like to
first see if
"C-)" is recognized in another application.  Are there any Windows
applications
to show keypresses?

It shows the help for `paredit-forward-slurp-sexp', which is what I
expect.
