bug#64927: 30.0.50; kill-ring with no X

bug#64927: 30.0.50; kill-ring with no X

[Colin Baxter]

1. Emacs-30.0.50 compiled --with-x-toolkit=no
2. emacs -Q <RET>
3. C-x C-f test.txt <RET>
4. Enter some text, e.g. "This is a test."
5. Enter some more text, e.g. "This is another test."
6. Place the cursor somewhere and press <F10>
7. Select Edit --> Paste from kill menu --> This is test.
8. popup-menu: Invalid `key-parse' syntax: %S: ["This is a test"]

This only seems to effect "no X" emacs.

Colin Baxter.

Forget to mention that the text 4, 5 has of course to be copied to the
kill-ring using C-<space> M-w. Sorry about that!

I can reproduce the same problem on a TTY frame by activating the menu
with F10, but not if the menu is activated with a mouse (on a
text-mode terminal that has a mouse).  Do you see the same problem in
the non-toolkit build if you use the mouse instead of the keyboard?

This also affects Emacs 29, and is a regression from Emacs 28, which
is related to the use of the new key-* functions.  Specifically, the
error is signaled by the call to key-valid-p issued by
possibly_translate_key_sequence, which is a subroutine of lookup-key.
The argument KEY of possibly_translate_key_sequence in this case is a
vector whose only element is a string with text properties:

  [#("create a file" 0 13 (face font-lock-comment-face fontified t))]

key-valid-p doesn't support such strings, it expects strings that
describe key sequences.

Significantly, possibly_translate_key_sequence calls key-parse after
it calls key-valid-p, and key-parse copes with this string quite well.
So I'm thinking of removing the key-valid-p call from
possibly_translate_key_sequence, since I believe key-parse can detect
any problems by itself?  Stefan, WDYT?

Colin, can you try such a change and see if it produces any
regressions?

No, `key-parse` doesn't handle this correctly either.

The ["create a file"] above is an "internal" key-sequence of length
1 that happens to use a string as the sole key.

`possibly_translate_key_sequence` instead is trying to handle the new
"external" key-sequence format [<KBDSTRING>] where <KBDSTRING> is using
the `kbd` syntax, i.e. the string is not itself a key but represents
a key-sequence.

IOW, this is a fundamental incompatibility introduced by the support for
this new [<KBDSTRING>] format in `define-key`: keys cannot be arbitrary
objects any more (among other things they can't be strings any more).

Hmm... that's bad, isn't it?  Menus always supported strings like
that, so we have no lost that?  Do you see any reasonably practical
way to get that back?

And here we are not calling define-key, we are calling lookup-key
instead, btw.

Yes, tho admittedly such unconventional keys had various rough corners
(e.g. they triggered a few bugs over the years).

I think this problem was noticed when the new feature was introduced and
we fixed the generation of the kill-ring menu, but apparently nobody
fixed the problem in the second part of the code which generates the
kill-ring (I remember I mentioned at the time that we should try and
consolidate those two code paths).

> Do you see any reasonably practical way to get that back?

The best we can do is to use `key-valid-p` as a best-effort test to
decide whether we're in the presence of the new or the old format, but
it will inevitably suffer from false positives/negatives.

Looks like that, yes.

Not sure I understand: if key-valid-p returns nil, what do you suggest
to do with "keys" such as those produced in the scenario of this bug
report?

I suggest we do:

    diff --git a/src/keymap.c b/src/keymap.c
    index da2af98c2d6..eec3e884935 100644
    --- a/src/keymap.c
    +++ b/src/keymap.c
    @@ -1066,7 +1066,7 @@ possibly_translate_key_sequence (Lisp_Object key, ptrdiff_t *length)
     		  build_string ("`key-valid-p' is not defined, so this syntax can't be used: %s"),
     		  key);
           if (NILP (call1 (Qkey_valid_p, AREF (key, 0))))
    -        xsignal2 (Qerror, build_string ("Invalid `key-parse' syntax: %S"), key);
    +        return key;
           key = call1 (Qkey_parse, AREF (key, 0));
           *length = CHECK_VECTOR_OR_STRING (key);
           if (*length == 0)

With this change,

    (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap))) (define-key map ["he"] 'hello) map)

returns (keymap ("he" . hello)) as before, and emits a message:

    Key sequence contains invalid event he

whereas

    (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap))) (define-key map ["h e"] 'hello) map)

returns (keymap (104 keymap (101 . hello))).

I think this new [KBDSTRING] syntax was probably a mistake, in
retrospect: it made sense at the time, but we should have removed it
afterwards when we introduced the new `key-*` functions.

I have applied this patch and it seems to work.

1. In a test file select a region with mouse and save to kill-ring.
2. Select another region via C-<space> and save to kill-ring.
3. Paste both regions in another part of test file using mouse via
   <F10> --> Edit --> Paste from kill-ring Menu
4. Success.

Thanks, I've now installed this on the emacs-29 branch, and I'm
closing this bug.

The issue remains whether I use a mouse to mark the region or C-<space>.

I will try, but I might be out of my depth here. I've found the
"possibly_translate_key_sequence" line in keymap.c, but what part of the
c program should I then comment out and re-build?
