From 0eaf4a21dda9519cc08db5b49126b02c4c6b5682 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Austin Clements Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2012 23:13:12 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] emacs: Fix search tab completion in terminals In X, Emacs distinguishes the tab key, which produces a 'tab event; from C-i, which produces a ?\t event. However, in a terminal, these are indistinguishable and only produce a ?\t event. In order to simplify things, Emacs automatically translates from 'tab to ?\t (see "Function key translations" in M-x describe-bindings), so functions only need to be bound to ?\t to work in all situations. Previously, the search tab completion code usedq (kbd ""), which produced the event sequence [tab], which only matched the 'tab event and hence only worked in X. This patch changes it to (kbd "TAB"), which matches the general ?\t event and works in all situations. --- emacs/notmuch.el | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/emacs/notmuch.el b/emacs/notmuch.el index 99e0c93a..f0afa072 100644 --- a/emacs/notmuch.el +++ b/emacs/notmuch.el @@ -962,7 +962,7 @@ PROMPT is the string to prompt with." completions))) (t (list string))))))) ;; this was simpler than convincing completing-read to accept spaces: - (define-key keymap (kbd "") 'minibuffer-complete) + (define-key keymap (kbd "TAB") 'minibuffer-complete) (let ((history-delete-duplicates t)) (read-from-minibuffer prompt nil keymap nil 'notmuch-search-history nil nil)))))
