mcdiff shortcut

Description

mc.keymap defines:

CmdCompareDirs = d
CmdDiffView = ctrl-y

it would be more logical to have CmdDiffView under ctrl-d xmap.

Just create mc.keybind.gotar and attach to this ticket ;)

comment:2 Changed 15 years ago by gotar

It doesn't make any sense to create alternate keymap for just one binding. I'd prefer default to be changed to something better as it's still new feature.

Actually, the c-x c-y shortcut is already used for a long time. I think this thicket should be closed as wontfix.

I don't share your opinion:

  1. mcdiff exists only in development branch, so according to your own statement from http://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/2305#comment:6 (and 3 above) this is not an argument,
  1. even if some of you are so attached to existing shortcut, it's possible to reserve second keystroke to the CmdDiffView.

All I'd like to get are fine working defaults for next stable release, so if you think ctrl-y is logical (I don't even know a language wich has 'y' in 'difference') please close this, as personally I don't have any problems in changing mc.keymap locally.

Replying to gotar:

All I'd like to get are fine working defaults for next stable release, so if you think ctrl-y is logical (I don't even know a language wich has 'y' in 'difference') please close this, as personally I don't have any problems in changing mc.keymap locally.

I don't know a language wich has '?' in 'Find File', either. But that's not the point. The point is that you don't know many languages. Like, "man diff", for example:

-y --side-by-side

Output in two columns.

But don't mind me. Feel free to shuffle a random number of shortcuts in each release.
