Re: [Denemo-devel] Major overhaul of shortcut mechanism

[Richard Shann]

There was a problem: Backspace was becoming Shft+Backspace if the caps
lock was on. I have restricted this modal effect of caps lock to the
alphanumeric keys.
So you are free to set Shft+Backspace to be something like "delete
objects from cursor back to start of measure" if you care to write the
script:)
