[Jed-users-l] "fix" scrolling?

Hi! i love using jed (0.99.19U on Ubuntu) but am confused by its scrolling: when I repeatedly hold the down
arrow, when the cursor hits the last line of the screen it seems to scroll/jump the entire screen ahead
rather than just showing the next line. Is there a way to configure this? I looked at the FAQ and the mailing
list but found no reference to how to tweak this. thanks! ~l

What terminal and editor emulation are you using?  Also, what is the
value of the TERM_CANNOT_SCROLL variable?  You can obtain this
value using the "Help->Describe Variable" menu item.

Thanks,

Re: [Jed-users-l] "fix" scrolling?

John,

I'm using emacs emulation. The variable is described as 

Integer_Type TERM_CANNOT_SCROLL: value = 0

In bash the TERM variable is set to xterm. This is using gnome-terminal. I just tried it in the console
(outside of X) and jed scrolls just fine there. Any idea on what might be causing this?

Thank you for any help (and for jed!)

[Jed-users-l] Mute (dead or accent) keys

Hallo everyone,

I have this in my ~/.jedrc:

----------------------------------------------------------

%    Mute (dead or accent) keys
%    Valid Mute keys are:
%      ^, ~, ', `, \d168 (ISO Diaeresis), \d180 (ISO Acute), and \".
%    This means pressing this key then the key you want to accent yields
%     the accented character.  If you do not know what this is, you do not
%     need them.  By default, they are turned off.

%mute_set_mute_keys (" ^ ~ ' ` \d168 \d180 \"  ");  % choose all or subset

----------------------------------------------------------

Still, a backtick (`) has to be always typed twice to appear. Tildes (~) 
are also strange: First one only has to be typed twice to appear.

(If this really is a FAQ, then I was to dumb to find it. Please bear 
with me and enlighten me ...)

-Michael

PS: I'm using jed-0.99.19-3 rebuild from fedora on CentOS-6.2 with 
slang-2.2.1-1.el6 in emacs mode. But the problem itself is now many 
years old.

The backtick key runs the quoted-insert function.  If you want it to
simply insert itself, then put

   setkey ("self_insert_cmd", "`");

in your .jedrc keybindings_hook.  If you do not have such a hook, create it
by adding

   define keybindings_hook (emulation)
   {
     setkey ("self_insert_cmd", "`");
   }

to your .jedrc file.

About the ~ key; Are you using jed via ssh?  The ~ key is an escape
character for ssh allowing you to suspend the ssh session.

Ah, ok. But then

--------------------------------------------------------------

%    Mute (dead or accent) keys
%    Valid Mute keys are:
%      ^, ~, ', `, \d168 (ISO Diaeresis), \d180 (ISO Acute), and \".
%    This means pressing this key then the key you want to accent yields

%mute_set_mute_keys (" ^ ~ ' ` \d168 \d180 \"  ");  % choose all or subset

---------------------------------------------------------------

is slightly misleading, I think.

Hmm ... Yes, via ssh. Funny: emacs and vi do it, too. Never noticed,
