Subject: [PATCH v3] git-gui: Handle Ctrl + BS/Del in the commit msg
Date: Mon, 8 Apr 2019 12:54:54 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190408125406.16703-1-ismael.luceno@silicon-gears.com> (raw)

- Control+BackSpace: Delete word to the left of the cursor.
- Control+Delete   : Delete word to the right of the cursor.

Originally introduced by BRIEF and Turbo Vision between 1985 and 1992,
they were adopted by most CUA-Compliant UIs, including those of: OS/2,
Windows, Mac OS, Qt, GTK, Open/Libre Office, Gecko, and GNU Emacs.

In both cases Tk already implements the functionality bound to other key
combination, so we use that.

Graphical examples:

Deleting to the left:
        v------ pointer
X_WORD____X
  ^-----^------ selection

Deleting to the right:
  v--------- pointer
X_WORD_X
  ^--^------ selection

    - Reimplemented via existing events, which correctly delete spaces.

    Changes since v1:
    - Improved commit message.
