Pitch bend versus Commands list #52

Open wraybowling opened 4 years ago

wraybowling commented 4 years ago

ORCA-C makes use of ? to bring up a commands list. This is extremely helpful, to the point that I was astonished to find it missing from the original Over there, a ? sends a pitch bend. We should have parity. ? is a smart key to press for help. Pitch bend should likely be something else that's not in use yet like ^ or ~. Whatever we land on, let's make sure it matches in the C port so everything works together.

Actually, if you type / in orca-c, it will input a ? for pitch bend. I should probably document this somewhere...

wraybowling commented 4 years ago

a slope symbol like / makes plenty sense to me. What are the chances we can change ? to / across all orcas instead of divergent documentation? cc: @neauoire

I tried this out just now and realized you meant that when you press the / key a ? is written to the screen without the need for pressing Shift.

I would be game to change it in OrcaJS, and opening the guide on ?.
