Re: [Xmonad] darcs patch: Alt-Tab rather than Mod-Tab
I understand that. The reason that I think this is a good exception is that the Alt-Tab shortcut is rather extra anyway. it's the same thing as mod-j. So, to me it looks like the mod-Tab is just backwards-compatibility for a shortcut most WMs have. So, I think maintaining this compatibility even when the user changes the default mod is desirable. I don't think this particular binding would really conflict with much, alt-tab is quite standard. Thanks, Michael Sloan On 7/24/07, Spencer Janssen <sjanssen@cse.unl.edu> wrote:

We're trying to keep all the keybindings under one modkey -- this allows the user to relegate xmonad to an unused modifier in one simple step.

Any emacs user will curse your name if you steal that key. ;-) Sure, one can change the binding, but if I set modMask to mod4Mask I expect that no other keys are used for xmonad. Bye, Tassilo -- There is in fact an "I" in Norris, but there is no "team"? not even close.
Oh, ok, I guess that's that, then. Thanks, Michael Sloan On 7/24/07, Tassilo Horn <tassilo@member.fsf.org> wrote:
