of jed.
Menu Activation and Navigation
------------------------------
The menus may be activated via the mouse, or by pressing the F10 key
or the ESC-m key. Also, ESC + accelerator character may be used to
activate a particular menu-bar item, e.g. `ESC-f' to select the `File'
menu, provided that the particular editor emulation does not bind the
key to something else. For example, Emacs uses ESC-f to move by
words. See the discussion about `enable_menu_keys' below to work
around this problem.
The arrow keys or the mouse may be used to navigate the menus. Use the
ENTER key to select a menu item. To go back to a previous menu, press
either the ESC key or the backspace key.
Menu Colors
-----------
The colors of the menus may be controlled by the `set_color' strings:
"menu" Color of the menu bar
"menu_popup" Color of the popped-up menu window
"menu_char" Color of the keyboard-accelerator character
"menu_selection" Color of the current selection
"menu_shadow" Color of the popup-box shadow
Special Hints
-------------
To enable the mouse when running jed in an xterm, put the line
enable_xmouse ();
in your .jedrc file.
To hide the menu bar, put
enable_top_status_line (0);
in your .jedrc file. This will hide the menu bar until it is
activated via a key such as F10.
Some terminals map the ALT key modifier to ESC + key. For such
terminals, an item on the menu bar may be activated via the ALT key +
the accelerator key, e.g., `ALT-f' to select the file menu.
The main problem with hot-keys such as ESC-f is that certain modes
rebind these keys to other function. To rebind these keys to the
menubar functions, put the line:
enable_menu_keys ();
in your .jedrc file AFTER loading the appropriate editor emulation,
e.g., emacs.
