revert overdeleted c-a binding from #715#734
Conversation

@crides any reason? @Tastaturtaste was there a reason that ctrl-a was removed? |
|
Yes, the reason was that I wanted to avoid specifying default behaviour for nushell in multiple places. Since the nushell defaults are already defined in config.nu I removed the default from reedline while I was already at it removing conflicting defaults. I figured that since the feature was still pretty fresh and not yet released in nushell there shouldn't be any breakage. |

In nushell we prefer the reverse. If there is a default, it should be in rust code so that if you run nushell without a config file, you still get default keybindings as listed in default_config.nu. I don't see a conflicting ctrl+a. Is there one? Also, not all nushell defaults are defined in the config.nu. Some of the VI keybindings aren't easily exposed and therefore are not available. |
|
ctrl + char_a is already taken in default_config for move_to_line_start. Instead I added a binding for ctrl + shift + a for select_all. And this confusion is the reason I would prefer to have all defaults in one place. But it's your call, of course. |

ctrl+a in default_config.nu is not conflicting with this PR because they're both move_to_line_start. what am I not understanding here? kb.add_binding(
KM::CONTROL,
KC::Char('a'),
edit_bind(EC::MoveToLineStart { select: false }),
);If we were going to put select all on ctrl+a, then it would conflict but that's why I said ctrl+shift+a. We have to have keybindings in rust code because if you run nushell without a config file, no keybindings would work at all. |

There is no conflict, but there is only human vigilance to keep those places in sync. I realize now this is known and very much intended, even though I don't agree. When I deleted the ctrl + a binding I didn't realize it was already there before my PR was merged and I didn't want to introduce further duplication. The removal of existing duplication was not my intention. For all I know this PR should be fine to merge to get the previous default even without a default_config back. |
Restoring previous well-known defaults |

ok, no worries at all @Tastaturtaste. I was just trying to understand your position. Thanks @crides. |
