menu select behaviour

menu select behaviour

[David Thiel]

Question: Is there any way to default to vi keybindings when using
the menu select zstyle?  If not, would everyone agree that the 
correct behaviour for it would be to look at the current keymap and
decide how to behave from that?  

Thanks,
David

Sorry for the late reply.

I'm not really sure I understand what you mean, though. Do you want to
be able to move the cursor inside menu selection with `j', `k', etc.?

You can always define that yourself with

  bindkey -M menuselect 'j' ...

and so on.

I'm not sure I'd like changing the behaviour of these keys in menu
selection even if the user normally uses vi keybindings, because such
`normal' keys currently should leave menu selection and immediately
execute the key's normal function which seems very sensible to me.

Bye
