Re: Mc Digest, Vol 58, Issue 11

[chris glur <crglur gmail com>]

I suspect that linux can change key-macros by
just over-loading some file. But I can't find
how to do it.

mc / mcedit can't use it's key-macros to search
[and replace] because it can't be made not to
stop to insert a serch-argument. Which is a
pity since search [and replace] a pre-know string
is often required during editing.
