I just pushed a new branch at:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-builder/log/?h=wip/alexl/emacs-css-keys
This removes the GbEmacsSource completely, and instead just loads some
custom css when emacs mode is enabled:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-builder/tree/src/resources/css/emacs.css?h=wip/alexl/emacs-css-keys
This has several cool features:
* Fixes the bug where emacs mode got confused if you entered a command
prefix that didn't exist.
* This is very flexible and generic, as well as fits well into how gtk+
works.
* some emacs keybindings (like cursor motion) work in entries and tree
views as well as in the sourceview.
* You can easily trigger any kind of builder action from any keybinding,
as well as the normal keybinding signals
* There is a mode thing that lets you do modal things like this:
bind "<ctrl>x" { "set-mode" ("emacs-x", transient) };
plus:
@binding-set builder-emacs-source-view-x {
bind "<ctrl>c" { "action" ("app", "quit", "") };
}
GbSourceViewMode.emacs-x {
gtk-key-bindings: builder-emacs-source-view-x;
}
Lets you do the emacs style ctrl-x ctrl-c to exit.
GbSourceViewMode even has a "modal" type mode which i believe could
be used to implement the vim mode using regular CSS. (Although i don't
really speak vim, so who knows).
* I added a bunch of things from the default.ini keybinding setting to
the emacs mode that were not bound at all before.
Some are still missing because i'm not sure what they are or how to
best fit them in with emacs stuff.
* The current defaults.ini and vim.ini files could easily be converted
to standard CSS keybindings too.
