Need help changing key bindings

[Paterline, David L.]

Hello -



I'm trying to bind ctrl-y to the Edit -> Redo function, and having no
success.



After reading the 'help' information, I've tried adding this to my X
defaults file:



nedit*editMenu.redo.acceleratorText: Ctrl+y

nedit*editMenu.redo.accelerator: Ctrl<Key>Y



and I've tried this:



NEdit*text.Translations: #override \n\

Ctrl<Key>y: redo() \n



but neither one worked.



Can this be done by setting something in my ~/.nedit file? Or, does it
have to be done using X resources?



Can anyone provide some assistance.



Thank you.

Hi David,

Ctrl+Y is bound to "Open Selected" in the File menu, so
you must remove this binding from Xresources at first.

nedit*fileMenu.openSelected.accelerator:

Then you can either add above mentioned to Xresources

nedit*text.Translations: #override \n\
Ctrl<Key>y: redo() \n

or add binding you want via
Preferences> Default Settings> Customize Menus> Macro or Window Background menus

Works great. I was missing the part about removing the pre-defined key
binding. Thank you.
