libtickit-app-plugin-escapeprefix-perl

Description

Tickit::App::Plugin::EscapePrefix applies code to a Tickit instance to let it handle <Escape>-prefixed shortcut keys, by converting them into the equivalent <M-...> modified keys instead.

Once applied using the /apply method, the plugin will consume any plain <Escape> keys typed at the terminal. If another key arrives soon afterwards, this key will be consumed and instead a new keypress event emitted that adds the "meta" modifier to it. For example, typing <Escape> <a> will instead emit the modified key <M-a> to the application. If no subsequent key arrives after a timeout of 3 seconds then the modification will not apply.

While the plugin is still pending anothey keypress to modify, a small indicator window will appear in the bottom left of the display, showing ESC- in a reverse-video style, to remind the user the keypress is pending.
