(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: konq-e Version: snapshot-20020311 Severity: wishlist Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc 2.95.3 (SuSE 7.2 packaged version) OS: Linux OS/Compiler notes: SuSE 7.2 I think that a fast way to edit the keymapping should be great in konqueror/konq-e. It would help developpers to change easily a setting re-compile and everything would be done. I did a workaround by creating a keymapping.h file containing some #define in it so it will be possible to edit this only file to change the settings (sure I have to rebuild after but I'm OK with it) in the whole application. An example would be : #define KEY_CLOSE_VIEW CTRL + Key_W Files to modify with the new defined keys seems to be (in the konqueror embedded snapshot 20020311) : - src/mainwindowbase.cc - dropin/kio/passdlg.cpp - kdesrc/khtml/khtml_part.cpp - kdesrc/khtml/khtmlview.cpp - kdesrc/khtml/testkhtml.cpp - kdesrc/khtml/rendering/render_form.cpp - kdesrc/kio/http/kcookiejar/kcookiejarwin.cpp It worked for us as we needed to use only some keys available on the keypad of our embedded device which may not always have an external keyboard or mice.

The CVS version can assign accelerator keys from the XML UI (file konqe.rc) for all commands in the main menu and toolbar(s). Secondary, hidden accelerators can also be added from the konq-embedrc file that can map any key code to an action or URL. This is handy for the special keys found on some devices or when more than one accelerator is needed.
