Re: [Texmacs-dev] Ctrl-x key binding seems not working

[Miguel de Benito Delgado]

Hi,

  this seems to be specific to Linux (haven't tested yet), because under MacOS 
I see the key presses being reported when I activate qt debugging (I just 
pushed some changes which should make the debugging output more manageable, 
btw.) I typed some text, then activated qt debugging and selected the text. 
This is the output on the console:

keypressed
key  : 16777250
text : 
count: 0
meta
keypressed
key  : 88
text : 
count: 0
meta
key press: C-x
keypressed
key  : 72
text : h
count: 1
key press: h
