Re: [Bug-apl] ]keyb should function dynamically

[Elias Mårtenson]

Actually, even better would be if someone implemented the same thing in vim. I looked at vimscript, and although it's much less flexible than Emacs, it should certainly be possible.

Hi Elias,

cool!

I guess I will change to emacs if vi stops working  :-) .

I'm sure you all are annoyed with me for constantly plugging Emacs, but I just can't help myself.

The Emacs mode will display Jürgens keymap help in a separate window, automatically updated to correspond the the current active keymap. :-)

Hi,

at some point in time I started writing a dynamic ]keyb. But then people started
to complain about me using xmodmap (too old, too static, etc) and we now have
several other methods as well (see README-3-keyboard).

The downside is that it has become almost impossible to figure the current keyboard layout.

]keyb prints out a diagram of an APL keyboard.  Very helpful.  The problem is it appears to be static.  It doesn't reflect the actual keyboard mapping you are using.  I kind of doubt APL could figure this out dynamically, but I wonder if there isn't a better solution.
