I have 2 hotkeys for dired, that work in GUI mode in Emacs:
(add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(define-key dired-mode-map (kbd "C-<up>")
(lambda () (interactive) (find-alternate-file "..")))))
(add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(define-key dired-mode-map (kbd "C-<right>") 'diredp-find-file-reuse-dir-buffer)))
But when I click CTRL+→ or CTRL+↑ in console the cursor just moves as if the arrow was pressed.
When I try CTRL+H K and then CTRL+→, it gives me the right key docs as if CTRL wasn't pressed at all.
How to fix this strange behaviour in console?
I am using Linux Slackware 14, Emacs 24.2.1.
Here is the algorithm, how to make modifier keys work in Emacs in terminal.
1.Create a file funcskeys with content:
control keycode 105 = F100
string F100 = "\033[1;5D"
control keycode 106 = F101
string F101 = "\033[1;5C"
control keycode 103 = F102
string F102 = "\033[1;5E"
altgr keycode 105 = F103
string F103 = "\033[1;5F"
At the end must be an empty line!
2.Under root load the file:
#loadkeys funcskeys
3.Put this into the beginning of .emacs:
(unless (display-graphic-p)
(progn
(define-key input-decode-map "\e[1;5C" [(control right)])
(define-key input-decode-map "\e[1;5D" [(control left)])
(define-key input-decode-map "\e[1;5E" [(control up)])
(define-key input-decode-map "\e[1;5F" [(meta left)])))
End of algorythm
After this hotkeys will work:
(global-set-key (kbd "C-<right>") 'forward-word)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-<left>") 'backward-word)
