Because everything is connected to everything else,
it's dificult to not be accused of drifting off-topic.
[information hiding requires effort].
I'm a fanatic at resisting to do 'piano playing'.
ETH-oberon can run without a keyboard.
Here's just a small part of ETH-oberon's customisable:
EditKeys.Definitions [which I've line-wrapped here]
---------------
(hotkey is #160 (* 0A0X *))
!m ("MODULE " write "!ModlName" write ";"
write cr "END " write "!ModlName" write "." write cr)
!p ("PROCEDURE " write "!ProcName" write ";"
write cr "BEGIN" write cr ` "END " write
"!ProcName" write ";" write cr)
...etc..
e ("To: ....@....." write cr "Cc: crglur(a)gmail.com"
write cr "Date: Day Month 2007" write cr "
From: Chris Glur <easlab(a)absamail.co.za>"
write cr "Subject: " write caret cr cr " > see
System.Time TextMail.Cite Edit.Open ^"
write cr "oberon(a)lists.inf.ethz.ch" write cr ..etc.
-----------------
which for eg. "e" <insert> displays my template
for emailing, with the present date. So far that's the
only key-macro that I regularly use.
Apparently the 1st 2 key-macros liste above: !m & !p
will give you ...why do I talk, let me just do it !
------
MODULE !ModlName;
END !ModlName.
------
PROCEDURE !ProcName;
BEGIN
END !ProcName;
--------
Yes the indents are not correct.
I experimented with nesting of all the constructs
and found indentation problems .
=============
BTW. when I recently tried emacs under linux,
I couldn't find how/where to enter/edit the elisp
code.
Can you advise how ?
