Re: Lispworks/Linux-Motif customization

       Hi all lispworkers,


   Does anybody know
   1) how to prevent the Control+Tab keychord in LW/Editor from switching 
   focus (from editor-pane to echo-area-pane), and

Ctrl+Tab is a standard Motif navigation gesture, which is hardwired
into the CAPI's Motif backend...

   2) how to rebind it to an built-in Editor command ?

.... so such a binding will have no effect: X/Motif grabs the key event
before it can reach the LispWorks Editor.

   (having developed the bad habit of binding C-Tab to 
   indent-for-tab-comment in Emacs, I'm finding myself constantly shooting 
   in the foot when doing that in LW/Editor :-))

   I've tried to play a bit with Motif traversals, but with no success so 
   far...


   Thanks very much in advance,

   P.S. : BTW, I've come up with a quite different (from the default) set 
   of X resources for LW/Motif, that I happen to like more than the 
   defaults. If anyone is interested, please feel free to ask.

We'd be happy to put this on our contributions page to make it easily
accessible.


   (The LW i'm using is LW personal 4.3.6 for Linux)
