Package: hnb Version: 1.9.18-3 Severity: normal Hi,
this is a known bug, but since upstream no longer maintains hnb and the mailing-list hnb-general is full of spam I think it is a good idea do document in Debian's BTS. I use the following wordaround in context main: bind left right bind .. left bind .. left Below the original bugreport which can be found at: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=5124126&forum_id=1839 Regards, Carsten Changing the -> new node behavior From: Whit Blauvelt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 2004-07-14 15:55 Hi, After not using hnb for awhile, I"m back to heavy use of it since getting a Zaurus 860 and putting pdaXrom on it, and hnb 1.9.18 (it says it is - but is it a "pre"?) from the feed at pdaXrom.org. My main frustration is that I was sometimes losing fresh entries, and it took awhile to pin down why. It"s just the entries made after using the right arrow when there"s not already a subentry on an item, so that it opens a new one for typing. In this state, the left arrow key (among others) deletes the entry. And while there"s a contextual clue in the high-lighting, as to whether the entry has been saved or not, this isn"t enough to keep me from sometimes automatically hitting the left arrow to return to the parent entry. I haven"t been able to figure out a way to set .hnbrc to be sure that the parent saves whatever I"ve just typed before going anywhere - or alternately a way to have the right arrow enter fully into the normal editing mode (where left-arrow is safe) when there"s no submode existing to move to. I have done a partial work-around of resetting tab in context main to bind tab insert_below bind .. indent bind .. edit which opens a new submode for safe editing, but that still doesn"t remove the possibility of getting into new-mode editing where it"s _not_ safe. I imagine the behavior with the right arrow openning a new node can be removed in the source, but since I"m using a compiled ARM version here I"d rather find a way to fix it in .hnbrc, if there is one. Thanks, Whit Re: Changing the -> new node behavior From: Whit Blauvelt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 2004-07-16 12:31 Found the way to disable the dangerous behavior of the right arrow of openning a new subnode when the right arrow is pressed in main mode and there is none existing yet: bind right "go right" (replacing bind right right) Then, as mentioned before, a safe way of openning a subnote for editing is by binding this to tab (whose "complete" default I haven"t grokked the essense of anyhow) or any other spare key: bind tab insert_below bind .. indent bind .. edit Whit -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
