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.

For now, hotkeys are hardcoded, so you'll have to change

configurable key bindings ?

Yes, very much so. Changing sort order and toggling of
hidden files view would be very nice to have the
possibility of configuring your own, or at least to have
as shortcuts (in that case, preferably the ones Total
Commander have chosen).

I'm currently thinking of some tiny generic library for
this, which does like this:

a) commands have names (maybe even cmdline args ?)
b) hotkeys are mappings between keycodes and commands
c) menus/buttons map to command names
d) the mappings can be loaded from external files

But: using command names doesnt necessarily mean that
every time strings have to be passed and parsed, instead
an simple function could construct a direct pointer list
where the caller works on.

I'd also like to see user-defined shortcut keys for mc
please. So each user can tailor the shortcut keys for their
own implementation of mc. Maybe mc could start with a set of
default shorcuts that could then be customised?

Kind Regards,
