Emacs keybindings in spyder 2.3?

[GaryP]

I saw a post in another forum (I think it was the Anaconda forum) suggesting that v. 2.3 might have Emacs keybindings.  I downloaded 2.3 beta, but can't find them.  Do they exist in 2.3, and if so, how do I enable them.

Simple emacs keybindings (beginning of line,  kill to end of line, up line, down line, etc)  is important to me.  I have over 20 years of muscle memory that I don't want to bother changing.

Hi,

I'm currently refactoring our shortcuts machinery, which will let us
easily add new shortcut schemes in the near future (2.3.1 or 2.3.2). But
right now we don't have support for Emacs/Vim keybindings.

Cheers,
Carlos

Hey Carlos,

Any development on this? I'd really like to see this as well... it's pretty hard to work on spyder without this, but I love many of the other features!

[Carlos Córdoba]

Hi,

Sorry to give you bad news. I refactored our shortcuts support, so it should be far more easier to introduce a full set of new keybindings, but there hasn't been any progress on this so far.

I think Steven Sylvester was working on this some time ago. Steven, do you have time to resume your work and send a pull request for 2.4?

Cheers,
Carlos

I'd love to get this included in 2.4.  It would only include the basic navigation commands to start (essentially what you'd get at a bash command line). 

Regards,
Steve

[Carlos Córdoba]

Great! What do you mean by basic navigation commands? What about C-x-s, C-x-f and friends? Not to put pressure on you but I think we couldn't announce Emacs keybindings without those, don't you think? :-)

I hope to see your PR soon because I'm an Emacs user myself (although being introduced to computers with Win 95, I have to run it in cua mode :-)

Cheers,
Carlos

I'm expressly *not* signing up to implement a full emacs emulator, including a kill ring, etc.  I had merely added a few extra commands for line navigation, the ability to override C-a, and a simple way to toggle between the default keybindings and whichever emacs ones were implemented. C-x-a and C-x-f could be included in that toggle. 

Regards,

Steve

Hmm, perhaps the first thing that needs to be done is to allow the user to actually type in the keyboard shortcut in the Keyboard preferences panel.   Right now there is no way to specify a shortcut like C-x-s.  I found an example of how to do it here: http://doc.qt.digia.com/qq/qq14-actioneditor.html.

[Diego Fernandez]

That would be awesome! That's really the main functionality that I would want

Absolutely, and sorry if there was any confusion in my last post. We're just talking about keyboard shortcuts and no more. This is just to help people with their muscle memory :-)

Cheers,
Carlos

Hi Steven,  

Did you ever find a way to let users define their own keyboard short cuts?  (To define at least some of the emacs bindings?)

Thanks

Mike

[Carlos Córdoba]

Hi,

There is an open pull request that adds Emacs keybindings to Spyder:

https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/pull/2217


Cheers,
Carlos

Hi Michael,

I have yet to find a good way to allow the user to enter the shortcut, but the referenced pull request adds some of the terminal-like commands (Ctrl-P and friends).

Regards,

Steve

[Michael Kamal]

Thanks Carlos, Steve -- this is very useful!

[Tim Herfurth]

They still don't exist in spyder 3, right? Or did I miss it?

best

[Carlos Córdoba]

No, they still don't exist, sorry.


Cheers,
Carlos
