Subject: 23.0.50; S-SPC remapped to C-@ for no good reason, severely reducing usability
Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2007 11:33:03 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8763zlbau8.fsf@leeloo.anubex.internal> (raw)
Since yesterday morning's build, S-SPC seems to have been mapped to C-@
for no apparent reason; while C-SPC is a reasonable binding for
set-mark-command, S-SPC is not: it occurs very frequently when typing.
I now find myself having to frequently go back and re-add spaces to code
because they were eaten by S-SPC.
What's worse, I have no way of finding out where the mapping comes from.
C-h k S-SPC gives
C-@ (translated from S-SPC) runs the command set-mark-command
which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `simple.el'.
It is bound to C-SPC, C-@.
but it doesn't say where the translation comes from, and C-h b does not
list S-SPC as a translation, and only lists C-SPC and C-@ as bindings
for set-mark-command.
The translation seems to occur in all buffers, so it's probably some
global thing.
