[Rd] Misc/List Search Path from keyboard (PR#11036)
Full_Name: Richard Reed Version: 2.6.2 OS: MS Windows XP Pro Submission from: (NULL) (76.121.170.35) Pressing Alt-M+s doesn't search path. It just generates another ">". It does this in "vanilla" too. However, Alt-M+click "list search path" does work. Note that when I press Alt-M (and the "Misc" menu drops down) the second "s" in "list search way" is underlined indicating the "s" should complete the command.> versionplatform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32 status major 2 minor 6.2 year 2008 month 02 day 08 svn rev 44383 language R version.string R version 2.6.2 (2008-02-08)

There's another S earlier in the misc menu ("_S_top current computation"), so presumably the search path should move to another key (P, say). -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard ?ster Farimagsgade 5, Entr.B c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics PO Box 2099, 1014 Cph.

Actually Alt-M plus 'i' works, the issue being that graphapp is underlining the wrong letter. I know how to get the correct letter underlined, but not yet how to get it specified differently.

If there is more than one '&' in menu item string, Windows (at least XP) underlines the last one and takes the first one as the shortcut key. I've had to add code to ensure that there is at most one. Given that this once worked (say in 1999), I suspect earlier versions of Windows did something different. (Those versions used to display underlines are all times.) Fixed in 2.7.0 alpha shortly (and I've forced this one to 'p' rather than 'i'). On Thu, 27 Mar 2008, ripley at stats.ox.ac.uk wrote:> This message is in MIME format.
