To re-assign keys ?

To re-assign keys ?

[lanas]

Hello all,

 I use orgmode on a daily basis and it's great.  Although it could be a
bit better if it was possible to copy/paste as in regular buffers.  In
a regular buffer (eg. C, Perl code for instance) I use to select
characters inside a line of text: Shift-Crtl-Right Arrow.  In orgmode
it does not work because, I suppose, this key sequence is used for
somethign else.  How would one re-assign that key sequence to something
else so that the regular text selection can also be used in orgmode ? -
Thanks.

Cheers.

See:

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/10638/match=shift+selection


I never use shift selection, since it's poor compared to C-SPACE in
combination with emacs' moving commands. 

There are shortcuts to select paragraphs, sentences and so on.

Hi Lanas,


for short:

  M-x customize-variable RET org-disputed-keys RET

  M-x customize-variable RET org-replace-disputed-keys RET

      and set it to `t' (or `on')





BTW: I'll now go ahead and add an FAQ entry - if it doesn't exist yet
(`grep disputed-keys' says it does not).
