forward-sentence and backward-sentence not bound to anything #165

Closed Dev380 closed 7 months ago

On the main page from xahlee.info it says:

NEVER Need to Press Meta

Any emacs command that has a Meta (Alt) keybinding also have a keybinding without Meta in Xah Fly Keys.

However, it seems like forward-sentence and backward-sentence (M-e and M-a) are not bound. Is this intentional or a bug? I wanted to use them since I found xah-forward-punct and xah-backward-punct to be a bit limiting but I'm curious about the rationale of excluding the default emacs commands.

it's intentional. because that behavior is unpredictable. eg in emacs html mode. and many lang don't have notion of sentence. if this is a issue for you, reopen this issue and do list, concrete example, what major mode and text, you want to do the forward/backward sentence.
