Doesn't work in all modes #2

Closed fullofcaffeine closed 12 years ago

Hi!

This plugin is awesome and brings my emacs workflow even nearer my vim one. However, I notice that in some buffers, the bindings don't work, i.e Ibuffer backtrace. Would it be possible to force the evil-leader bindings globally, somehow?

Thanks,

Marcelo.

Hi, great that it helps you :)

I don't know what ibuffer backtrace is, but if you mean M-x ibuffer, then it's because it turns up in evil's emacs-state. By default evil-leader does only bind in normal-state, customize evil-leader/in-all-states to t and maybe evil-leader/non-normal-prefix (by default it's C-).

Hi cofi,

Yeah, ibuffer and the backtrace buffers. I've bound ,b to ido-switch-buffer, and it doesn't work in those buffers, so I have to fallback to C-x b. I've tried setting evil-leader/in-all-states to t but it didn't seem to make any difference. How can I setup the evil-leader/non-normal-prefix var? How does that work?

Thanks!

Marcelo.

No it doesn't bind the leader key directly, so ,b has no effect (or at least not the expected). It does bind it with the mentioned prefix, i.e. in this case C-, b invokes ido-switch-buffer. In theory you could customize the prefix to "" but I'd advise against it as you can't type a , in a normal way anymore.

I really should get around to write a README.

Cool, got it. Thank you!
