- [1] What are the default key bindings in textedit and elsewhere?
- [2] What can I put in my .ttysrc? Where is it documented?
- [3] Is there a tty-based interface to cm (Calendar Manager)?
- [4] How can I arrange to have my .signature included in my outgoing mail?
-
- [1] What are the default key bindings in textedit and elsewhere?
-
- See the man page for textedit(1) for some of them.
- In general, the editing/moving commands go in the opposite direction when
- shifted - e.g. Ctrl+w deletes a word, and Ctrl+W deletes the word to the
- right of the insert point.
-
- Meta-i - include file Meta-f - find selection (forward/backward)
-
- Ctrl-a - start of line Ctrl-< - back word
- Ctrl-e - end of line Ctrl-> - forward word
- Ctrl-w - delete word Ctrl-u - delete to start/END of line
- Ctrl-Return - move to end/START of document
-
- See the O'Reilly XView Reference Manual for a list of some of the default
- keys; see also the olwm or olvwm manual page.
-
- [2] What can I put in my .ttysrc? Where is it documented?
-
- See the manual page for shelltool.
-
- Subject: DeskSet, Mailtool, Calendar Manager, etc.
-
- [3] Is there a tty-based interface to cm (Calendar Manager)?
- Yes, cm_delete, cm_insert and cm_lookup; these all have manual pages.
- If "man cm_delete" doesn't work or gives strange messages, see under
- Trouble Shooting: Strange Error Messages, below.
-
- [4] How can I arrange to have my .signature included in my outgoing mail?
- The best way is:
- $ cd
- $ cp /usr/lib/.textswrc .
- $ chmod +w .textswrc
- edit .textswrc (use vi, textedit, or whatever you prefer)
- add the follwing:
- KEY_RIGHT(3) FILTER
- cat ~/.signature
- (you might need to change ~ to $HOME)
-
- Now pressing R3 will insert your .signature file.
