comparison README.multi-tty @ 83391:e99392472e41

Change `keyboard-translate-table' to be terminal-local. * lisp/subr.el (keyboard-translate): Use `terminal-local-value' to access `keyboard-translate-table'. * lisp/obsolete/keyswap.el: Ditto. * src/keyboard.c (Vkeyboard_translate_table): Moved to struct kboard. * src/keyboard.h (Vkeyboard_translate_table): Moved to struct kboard. * src/keyboard.c (read_char): Use current_kboard to access Vkeyboard_translate_table. * src/keymap.c (Fdescribe_buffer_bindings): Ditto. * src/keyboard.c (init_kboard): Initialize Vkeyboard_translate_table. * src/keyboard.c (syms_of_keyboard): Use DEFVAR_KBOARD to define Vkeyboard_translate_table. Update doc strings. git-archimport-id: [e-mail]--2004/emacs--multi-tty--0--patch-431

   and these more conventional configuration variables.
   (E.g. `symbol-value' would use current_kboard to access
   `last-command', but SELECTED_FRAME()->display->kboard to get the
   value of `function-key-map'.

** I think keyboard-translate-table should be made terminal-local.

** The single-keyboard mode of MULTI_KBOARD is extremely confusing
   sometimes; Emacs does not respond to stimuli from other keyboards.
   At least a beep or a message would be important, if the single-mode
   is still required to prevent interference.  (Reported by Dan
   Nicolaescu.)  

   What exactly does interrupt_input do?  I tried to disable it for
   raw secondary tty support, but it does not seem to do anything
   useful.  (Update: Look again. X unconditionally enables this, maybe
   that's why raw terminal support is broken again.  I really do need
   to understand input.)

** Fix stuff_char for multi-tty.  Doesn't seem to be of high priority.
