Re: [org] different key binding between GUI emacs and emacs -nw

It is certainly a weird issue.

I can't see how org-mode would behave differently at the OS level from
other emacs package bindings. Likewise, there is nothing different or
unusual about how org-mode does key bindings. If there was a problem at the
OS, window manager or interface library (i.e. gtk) level, it should affect
all bindings.

I'm sure this has been checked, but make sure it isn't the window
manager/OS 'stealing' the keys. When I install emacs on any system, the
first thing I do is use the OS or window manager facilities to
remove/disable any OS/window manager shortcuts so that the key presses get
passed through to Emacs. I doubt this is the problem because if it was, you
would see the same issue iwth other Emacs modes/packages, not just
org-mode.

Unless someone can produce a minimum example which can reproduce this
issue, I don't even see where to start.

I shold have mentioned that the version of Ubuntu I use is Gnome and I
build emacs with GTK.

I should also mention that Ubuntu (well Debian really) install a versino of
emacs which is customized and not stock-stnadard emacs. Also, my macOS
version of emcs is built using brew install and not brew cask install, so
it is built from the git repo and not using the macforosx binaries the cask
version uses.
