Thanks in advance. Somehow the message that Eli sent directly to me did not get through, probably lost in a torrent of spam, and I don't read gdb-patches regularly. That's not a very good excuse, though -- I should have made a point of checking the list in case anyone had issues with my change. I'm sorry. I will err on the side of caution next time I have a patch that seems obvious. Eli, thanks for fixing my ChangeLog entry -- I've been writing them that way for years and no one has pointed it out to me before. I'm glad to hear that you want to keep the "Ctrl-" prefix, since it seems more clear to me, but I had thought that it was more important to be consistent throughout the document. (My change was motivated by someone reviewing the documentation here at Tensilica, who complained about the inconsistency.) I understand what you're saying about using Emacs notation in that section, though. What about the TUI chapter? There are lots of "C-" prefixes in there and it's not tied to Emacs users. Should they all use "Ctrl-"? Also, I noticed that there is a mix of upper- and lowercase for Ctrl key combinations, e.g, "Ctrl-C" vs. "Ctrl-c". Can we make them all the same? I have a slight preference for uppercase, especially because of the "Ctrl-L" case that I mentioned earlier, but that goes against the Emacs-style "C-c" convention where the letter is lowercase. Here is a patch to fix one more place to use "Ctrl-". It was using "C-d" before my change, but it seems like it ought to use "Ctrl-" to be consistent, since it has nothing to do with Emacs. 2006-10-16 Bob Wilson * gdb.texinfo (ST2000): Use Ctrl- instead of C-. --------------060604080901050606030207 Content-Type: text/plain; name="gdb-ctrl.patch" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="gdb-ctrl.patch" Content-length: 658 Index: gdb.texinfo =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/src/src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo,v retrieving revision 1.360 diff -u -r1.360 gdb.texinfo --- gdb.texinfo 15 Oct 2006 21:36:00 -0000 1.360 +++ gdb.texinfo 16 Oct 2006 16:46:19 -0000 @@ -15264,7 +15264,7 @@ you are done interacting with STDBUG, typing either of two character sequences gets you back to the @value{GDBN} command prompt: @kbd{@key{RET} ~ .} (Return, followed by tilde and period) or -@kbd{@key{RET} ~ C-d} (Return, followed by tilde and control-D). +@kbd{@key{RET} ~ Ctrl-d} (Return, followed by tilde and control-D). @end table @node Z8000 --------------060604080901050606030207--
