Just browsing the Notepad++ code, it looks like this is the method to update Scintilla's mappings:
void ScintillaAccelerator::updateKeys() { NppParameters *pNppParam = NppParameters::getInstance(); vector<ScintillaKeyMap> & map = pNppParam->getScintillaKeyList(); size_t mapSize = map.size(); size_t index;
for(int i = 0; i < _nrScintillas; i++) { ::SendMessage(_vScintillas[i], SCI_CLEARALLCMDKEYS, 0, 0); for(size_t j = mapSize - 1; j >= 0; j--) //reverse order, top of the list has highest priority { ScintillaKeyMap skm = map[j]; if (skm.isEnabled()) { //no validating, scintilla accepts more keys size_t size = skm.getSize(); for(index = 0; index < size; index++) *::SendMessage(_vScintillas[i], SCI_ASSIGNCMDKEY, skm.toKeyDef(index), skm.getScintillaKeyID());* } if (skm.getMenuCmdID() != 0) { updateMenuItemByID(skm, skm.getMenuCmdID()); } if (j == 0) //j is unsigned, so default method doesnt work break; } } }
where they send a map of Scintilla key codes to each of the buffers?
Yes, Geany has a binding for sending the SCI_ASSIGNCMDKEY message but it isn't used anywhere. All you need to do is write code to read the settings and shove them into Scintilla.*

Here is my Scintilla config from Notepad++:

Do the ScintIDs look familiar?
Just guessing what the XML means, but Ids look ok, see Geany source sciltilla/include/Scintilla.h
To be compatible with the rest of Geanys config files it would be best to use a GKeyfile format instead of Notepads XML to store the settings.

Hi all,
Is there a mechanism for customizing the cursor movement keybindings in Geany?
I'm a happy Notepad++ user on WIndows, largely because it accommodates my "inverted T" editor navigation keybindings:
(http://chambery.subfire.org/images/keybindings-simplified.png)
Notepad++ uses Scintilla underneath, maybe I can port these over?
Hi Todd,
You are correct that these keybindings are handled by Scintilla. Scintilla can have the keybindings configured, but Geany currently does not have the ability to do it. It could be a useful addition but someones got to do it (tm) patches welcome.
Cheers Lex
PS doesn't have to be a GUI configurator, just loading a file would do
Thanks, Todd
