there have been changes in lfuns syntax (documented in RELEASE_NOTES), probably you need build your binding file step by step starting from the empty one. also add only bindings which change the default behaviour so its easy to track the problem down in future versions. in 1.6 you can even forget about editing binding file and use preferences shortcut dialog. pavel
