Re: CUA mode, turn off Shift+Curvor Move to Select

[Xah]

Thanks a lot for the info Lennart.

I read the elisp doc on symbol properties.
I also tried the suggested solution, for some reason it doesn't seems
to work.

eval the following code and turn on cua mode.

(global-set-key (kbd "M-T") 'scroll-up)
(global-set-key (kbd "M-C") 'scroll-down)
(global-set-key (kbd "M-G") 'backward-paragraph)
(global-set-key (kbd "M-R") 'forward-paragraph)
; etc other commands bound with Shift key.

(add-hook 'cua-mode-hook
 (lambda ()
   (put cua-scroll-down 'CUA nil)
   (put cua-scroll-up 'CUA nil)
   (put backward-paragraph 'CUA nil)
   (put forward-paragraph 'CUA nil)
   (put beginning-of-buffer 'CUA nil)
   (put end-of-buffer 'CUA nil)
   (put move-end-of-line 'CUA nil)

   ;;(define-key cua-global-keymap (kbd "M-C") 'no-select-cua-scroll-
down)
   ;;(define-key cua-global-keymap (kbd "M-T") 'no-select-cua-scroll-
up)
   ;;(define-key cua-global-keymap (kbd "M-G") 'no-select-backward-
paragraph)
   ;;(define-key cua-global-keymap (kbd "M-R") 'no-select-forward-
paragraph)
   ;;(define-key cua-global-keymap (kbd "M-H") 'no-select-beginning-of-
buffer)
   ;;(define-key cua-global-keymap (kbd "M-N") 'no-select-end-of-
buffer)
   ;;(define-key cua-global-keymap (kbd "M-D") 'no-select-move-end-of-
line)
   )
 )

then, when you do a scroll-up/down via the keys above, scroll-down
still activates region selection. Though, scroll-up does not. Could
this be a bug?

Also, backward-paragraph, forward-paragraph, beginning-of-buffer, end-
of-buffer all still activates region selection...
