From: David Reitter <david.reitter <at> gmail.com> To: Bug-Gnu-Emacs <bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org> Subject: C-h b alters key-translation-map (in a bad way) Date: Mon, 28 Jun 2010 10:41:36 -0400
X-debbugs-cc: larry <at> denenberg.com C-h b alters the key translation map. Emacs (setq ns-command-modifier 'alt) ;; On NS, we need to assign the modifier key Press Command-C -> A-c is undefined (correct) C-h b Press Command-C -> ¢ is inserted The value of `key-translation-map' is indeed changed by C-h b, and resetting it fixes the problem. Some debugging suggests that something odd is happening in describe_map(). Commenting out map = call1 (Qkeymap_canonicalize, map); makes the error go away. A direct call to `keymap-canonicalize' does not, however, reproduce it, so there is something else going on. Full credit for the original report of a reproducible bug goes to Larry Denenberg - his report is quoted below.
