Textarea undo redo #661

Open RFDAJE opened 3 years ago

RFDAJE commented 3 years ago

INFO

$ vimb --bug-info 
Version:         3.6.0-32-g55fb9cc
WebKit compile:  2.30.5
WebKit run:      2.30.5

Steps to reproduce

it seems vimb does not support undo/redo in textarea, I know open it in external editor with CTRL+t is an option, but for small text editing it is just handy if undo(CTRL+z)/redo(CTRL+y) could be supported, since CTRL+z is reserved for pass-through mode, how can we resolve this issue? any other ideas?

Expected behaviour

keyboard shortcut to allow undo and redo text editing.

Actual behaviour

CTRL+Z reserved for pass-through mode, feature missing.

@RFDAJE That feature sounds nice to me. I'm not sure if webkit provides undo/redo for form fields by default. But it might already exist so that we can map new keys to fire the keyevents webkit uses.
