Their different behavior could be confusing or worse for +users and not good for maintenance. Hence the conversion. + +The main difference for users is that user configurable key bindings +for builtin features are now handled uniformly. Now, editing a binding +in a keyset only affects its value in the keyset. All bindings are +defined together in the system-specific default keysets in config- +extensions.def. All custom keysets are saved as a whole in config- +extension.cfg. All take effect as soon as one clicks Apply or Ok. + +The affected events are '<<force-open-completions>>', '<<expand-word>>', +'<<force-open-calltip>>', '<<flash-paren>>', '<<format-paragraph>>', +'<<run-module>>', '<<check-module>>', and '<<zoom-height>>'. Any +(global) customizations made before 3.6.3 will not affect their keyset- +specific customization after 3.6.3. and vice versa. + +Inital patch by Charles Wohlganger. |
