|
|||
@lisp
|
||||
(defvar-keymap eww-textarea-map
|
||||
:parent text-mode-map
|
||||
:doc "Keymap for the eww text area."
|
||||
"RET" #'forward-line
|
||||
"TAB" #'shr-next-link)
|
||||
@end lisp
|
||||
|
||||
@kindex :repeat
|
||||
@kindex repeat-mode
|
||||
@cindex repeatable key bindings
|
||||
Each command in the keymap can be marked as `repeatable', i.e. usable
|
||||
in @code{repeat-mode}, by putting a @code{repeat-map} property on it,
|
||||
e.g.
|
||||
|
||||
@lisp
|
||||
(put 'undo 'repeat-map 'undo-repeat-map)
|
||||
@end lisp
|
||||
|
||||
where the value of the property is the map to be used by
|
||||
@code{repeat-mode}.
|
||||
|
||||
To avoid repetitive invocations of @code{put}, @code{defvar-keymap}
|
||||
also has a @code{:repeat} keyword, which can be used to specify which
|
||||
commands in the keymap are usable by @code{repeat-mode}. The
|
||||
following values are available:
|
||||
|
||||
@table @code
|
||||
@item t
|
||||
This means all the commands in the keymap are repeatable, and is the
|
||||
most common usage.
|
||||
|
||||
@item (:enter (commands ...) :exit (commands ...))
|
||||
This specifies that the commands in the @code{:enter} list enter
|
||||
@code{repeat-mode}, and the commands in the @code{:exit} list exit
|
||||
repeat mode.
|
||||
|
||||
If the @code{:enter} list is empty, then all commands in the map enter
|
||||
@code{repeat-mode}. Specifying one or more commands in this list is
|
||||
useful if there is a command which doesn't exist in the map being
|
||||
defined, but which should have the @code{repeat-map} property.
|
||||
|
||||
If the @code{:exit} list is empty then no commands in the map exit
|
||||
@code{repeat-mode}. Specifying one ore more commands in this list is
|
||||
useful if the keymap being defined contains a command that should not
|
||||
have the @code{repeat-map} property.
|
||||
@end table
|
||||
|
||||
In order to make e.g.@: @kbd{u} repeat the @code{undo} command, the
|
||||
following two stanzas are equivalent:
|
||||
|
||||
@lisp
|
||||
(defvar-keymap undo-repeat-map
|
||||
"u" #'undo)
|
||||
(put 'undo 'repeat-map 'undo-repeat-map)
|
||||
@end lisp
|
||||
|
||||
and
|
||||
|
||||
@lisp
|
||||
(defvar-keymap undo-repeat-map
|
||||
:repeat t
|
||||
"u" #'undo)
|
||||
@end lisp
|
||||
|
||||
The latter is preferred when there are many commands in the map, all
|
||||
of which should be repeatable.
