Back tick "`" do not work with history hotkey #70

Closed sgnsajgon closed 3 years ago

sgnsajgon commented 7 years ago

I use Ditto Clipboard Manager on Windows and I'm used to default "Ctrl-`" history hotkey (control + back stick). It would be great to be able to use the same hotkey for ClipIt on Ubuntu. Currently hotkey with back stick do not work.

Yes same thoughts here! I use Ditto on also Windows with CTRL+`

This clipboard manager allows you to use back tick https://github.com/pvanek/qlipper

This seems to be a limitation in the library used for binding keys. It appears that any punctuation character causes gdk_keyval_from_name to return 0 in https://github.com/CristianHenzel/ClipIt/blob/master/src/eggaccelerators.c#L316. Not sure how this could be resolved.

Good news! You can actually use backtick, but you have to specify the hotkey like this:

<Ctrl>grave

I looked for a long time for this. :-)

thanks @Epskampie, was looking for it but using Shift+Tab now anyway.

But I still could not figure out how to use the escape key, anyone's help would be appreciated, reply here #163.
