At chemnitz, I remove all parsing of \bind commands (so this is only for 1.4.0cvs, right?) from lyxrc. The bindings should now be defined in a bind file. The old scheme was just too weird, and did not fit very well with prefs. I have probably forgotten to adjust documentation and the various FAQ entries, though :) Christian> (I find it quite convenient to define temporary Christian> bindings/command-sequences in prefereces, since I'd Christian> otherwise have to modify one of the standard .bind-files). You can always have a file mybindings.bind that reads \bind_file "cua" \bind "foo" "bar" If we get a bindings editor, it would just create such a file (like for menus and toolbar). JMarc
