I'm having problems with operating meta+v (alt+v) (actually meta+something) hotkey, what enables qemu window "view" menu. And stuff. So I can't actually work in emacs, obviously. And I can't disable hotkeys in qemu menu. There's no such option.
Ubuntu 13.10.

I installed Alacritty (alacritty 0.11.0) terminal in Elementary OS 7 horus (build on top of Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, Linux 5.15.0-60-generic) but the "Ctrl + Shift + Space" shortcut to enter vim mode does not work. The vim mode is the main reason I've installed that terminal.
I know Elementary OS has some modifications like "natural copy/paste" in its native terminal "io.elementary.terminal" terminal (what I turned it off). Mabe some other customization of the OS could avoiding vim mode shortcut to work properly. I tested that shortcut in Ubuntu 22.10 before Elementary OS and it works fine.
I appreciate to fix this problem or some path to look for if some Elementary OS customization is actually avoiding that shortcut to work.
Thanks in advance.
I have VSCode on a Linux (Ubuntu 20.10) and Windows 10 machine. On working through the keybindings on each, I observe the following default out of the box settings:
The command editor.action.copyLinesUpAction is mapped on Windows to Shift+Alt+UpArrow. The same keybinding, however, on Linux is mapped to editor.action.insertCursorAbove.
There could be other examples as well. Is there any documentation of an exhaustive list of such differences in commands for the same keypresses on different operating systems?
When I use Emacs 25.3 in Cygwin and XOrg on win10, the window moves around unexpectedly. If I snap the window to the left side of the screen and then open the minibuffer, the window slightly shifts, and covers part of the window on the right. This behavior does not happen with MS Windows Emacs. If there a way to fix this?
EDIT: I followed the guide at https://tuhdo.github.io/setup-emacs-windows.html to setup embedded browser support, so I built the linux 25.3.1 version in Cygwin.
Canopy's integrated Ipython terminal allows to use Emacs keybindings, but the integrated code editor won't. This is a problem when switching from one window to the other...
Is there a way to activate Emacs keybindings in "Enthought" Canopy code editor? (I am on OS X)
I can't figure out why this isn't easy to find on Google, but after searching for about 10 minutes, I just decided to give up and post here.
The subject basically says it all. I'm running MinTTY as a cygwin terminal on a Windows XP desktop. All I want to do is have emacs open up in a new window rather than inside my terminal. What would be best is a switch for this, so I could toggle it depending on my current needs. This seems like something that would be useful to a lot of people, and I know I've done it before on Linux boxes, so I imagine there must be a way to do this in cygwin too. Anyone know how?
Just start a new mintty, telling it to invoke emacs:
mintty emacs
There are a couple of scenarios that you might clarify:
Running the cygwin version of emacs within a standard windows environment will call emacs within the current shell
If the Cygwin X-Windows server (i.e., “XWin Server”) has been started and the DISPLAY environment variable has been set in the mintty terminal (e.g., export DISPLAY=":0"), calling emacs will start it in its own window.
running the Windows version of emacs within the cygwin terminal should launch the new frame you are seeking.
If you want a separate emacs 'window', you would be best served by installing the Windows native version of emacs (I use the gnu emacs precompiled binaries), and calling it from the cygwin terminal.
