[feature request] improved typing controls #355

Closed 3hg4hj closed 1 week ago

3hg4hj commented 1 week ago

for console and messagemode: ctrl-left and ctrl-right to move between words, ctrl-backspace and ctrl-delete to delete words left and right, adjustable typematic delay and rate [maybe consistent with win/X11 settings? would be better just as a cvar]

ctrl-left and ctrl-right to move between words

These might be supported, as they seem to work this way in bash/readline.

ctrl-backspace and ctrl-delete to delete words left and right

What uses these bindings by default? Currently Ctrl+W erases word to the left of cursor.

adjustable typematic delay and rate

These are already OS controlled on Windows and X11. Don't think Q2PRO really needs different settings from other GUI applications.

nope!

ezquake console, quake3e console, world of warcraft, firefox, pretty much every conventional text editor [npp, kate, gedit, micro, lite xl]

These are already OS controlled on Windows and X11. Don't think Q2PRO really needs different settings from other GUI applications.
