Hi,
I'm working on updating the keyboard shortcuts in the docs (starting with
the User Guide). It's immediately obvious that I'm going to get myself
into a CUA vs Emacs binding battle. Having used Emacs for about 16 years,
guess which one I prefer ...
Given that CUA is the default, and assuming that an overwhelming majority
use that, the question is how to I document such things without being
ridiculous? Do I just document CUA and tell Emacs users to go figure it
out themselves? (e.g. "to cut highlighted text, use C-x")
Do I put the Emacs equivalent in parentheses? (e.g. "to cut highlighted
text, use C-x (C-w)")
Or do I annoy everyone and spell it out? (e.g. "to cut highlighted text,
use C-x in CUA or C-w in Emacs")
The current style is closer to the first (ignore Emacs users), but it's
not spelled out anywhere, and there are a few Emacs-style commands
sprinked about. I would like to hear a few opinions - I intend to do this
only once ...
Mike
