Carbon Emacs does not recognize C-M-f when using the caps-lock as a control key, but works fine if I use the ctrl key. I'm using GNU Emacs 22.0.90.1 on a PowerBook G4. C-M-b, C-f, C-b, C-M-up etc. all work fine using either the ctrl key or the caps-lock key. The problem seems to be only with using the caps-lock key and C-M-f. I've mapped the caps-lock key to be an additional control key, via the OS X System Preferences (System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Modifier Keys). I'm also using the alt / option key as my meta key. I get the buggy behavior with the following, minimal .emacs.el file: (setq ;; Setup so that the alt/option key is interpreted by Carbon Emacs ;; to be the Meta key. mac-pass-option-to-system nil mac-option-modifier 'meta) describe-bindings lists C-M-f as bound to forward-sexp. describe-key doesn't react when I type <caps-lock>-M-f, it just sits there like I haven't entered anything. But describe-key does the right thing if I type <ctrl>-M-f or <caps-lock>-M-b. view-lossage doesn't record any instances of <caps-lock>-M-f, but shows <ctrl>-M-f and <caps-lock>-M-b etc. just fine. Thanks for any insight, Peter -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...Download
