I disagree that this is "quite properly". When I do the same on MS-Windows, keys modified by Ctrl, Shift, and Alt are not translated. That is, Emacs still sees C-b, not some control-modified Hebrew character. Perhaps you could fix your problem on the Mac level. _______________________________________________ emacs-bidi mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-bidi
