NAME
Tickit::App::Plugin::EscapePrefix - Tickit application plugin for
Escape-prefixed shortcut keys
SYNOPSIS
use Tickit;
use Tickit::App::Plugin::EscapePrefix;
my $tickit = Tickit->new;
Tickit::App::Plugin::EscapePrefix->apply( $tickit );
...
$tickit->run;
DESCRIPTION
This package applies code to a Tickit instance to let it handle <Escape
>-prefixed shortcut keys, by converting them into the equivalent
<M-...> modified keys instead.
Once applied using the "apply" method, the plugin will consume any
plain <Escape> keys typed at the terminal. If another key arrives soon
afterwards, this key will be consumed and instead a new keypress event
emitted that adds the "meta" modifier to it. For example, typing
<Escape> <a> will instead emit the modified key <M-a> to the
application. If no subsequent key arrives after a timeout of 3 seconds
then the modification will not apply.
While the plugin is still pending anothey keypress to modify, a small
indicator window will appear in the bottom left of the display, showing
ESC- in a reverse-video style, to remind the user the keypress is
pending.
METHODS
apply
Tickit::App::Plugin::EscapePrefix->apply( $tickit )
Applies the plugin code to the given toplevel Tickit instance.
TODO
Much configuration - timeout; style, text and position of indicator
window
