CTRL-Y

[mattschinkel]

Can you please either disable CTRL-Y or change it to "redo"

I am used to having CTRL-Z as "undo" and CTRL-Y as "redo". As jaledit
was orignally a windows software, these controls should match that of
other windows programs (such as microsoft word which uses ctrl-y)

Currenty, when I press CTRL-Y it deletes my code!

Thanks,
Matt.

Ctrl-z is kinda standard but Ctrl-Y not that much. Ctrl-Y is delete current line.
I'll try to have a UI for editing the keyboard shortcuts in the next version.

Paint Shop Pro, is only package I much use redo
It's Ctrl Alt Z
Undo is Ctrl Z

The only really cross application short cuts (date back to some CP/M
applications) are
Ctrl Z = unZap = undo
Ctrl X = eXcise = cut
Ctrl C = Copy
Ctrl V = moVe = paste

They are all in a line. I've used CP/M, MSDOS CP/M 86, Windows, UNIX,
Though MS Word has "Redo" as ctrl Y, I've never used it.

I admit if presented with "vi" I will install "nano".

Also different apps have a different concept of "Redo". If you did
Ctrl X, "Redo" might do a second cut.

I think Notepad++ uses Ctrl Y as Redo, but it seems more like an Undo
in operation. Notepad++ (free) can be (or Textpad (shareware)) can be
customised for JAL syntax and can integrate with Compiler. Both it and
Textpad handle multiple files.

But I prefer JalEdit.

Maybe what you want is a command History.

Actually it's only seconds work to go in Jaledit to Tools | Editor
Settings | Keystrokes
(last tab)
Delete the CtrlY entry
Add ecRedo and press CtrlY

So JalEdit does do what you want?

Yes, custom key's would be nice as well as Sunish mentioned.

My opologies Sunish, I think you said once that you will be doing
this, but I had forgotten.

Thanks,
Matt.
