Re: [Bug: 21.4.12] 'menu-accelerator-enabled' don't work properly
I use
(custom-set-variables
; ...
'(menu-accelerator-enabled nil t)
; ...
)
in my .emacs in native Windows 2000 XEmacs 21.4 and 21.5.
This allows me to use
M-f (forward-word)
to access the file menu I first type Meta (which activates the first
menu in the menubar) followed by f, which brings up the file menu.
This way I get the best of both worlds.
I would be interested to hear whether this works for you on Linux too.
Nope, it seems that the trick doesn't work on Linux, unless i didn't understand
something properly. I tried to set both '(menu-accelerator-enabled nil t) and
'(menu-accelerator-enabled 'menu-fallback t) (and some vaiations
on the theme) in custom-set-variables function, but still it doesn't work.
But actually, even if that trick worked, 'menu-accelerator-enabled' variable
doesn't work as documented, so IMHO it still would have considered to
be a bug.
