A little off-topic: You can do this (under Windows) easily with "keytweak" (http://webpages.charter.net/krumsick/). Works very nice, I usually map the chaps lock key simply to another usual "shift".

Yes, I've tried this. Unfortunately I use two different keyboards with my dev machine, and switching between them doesn't seem to play too well with keytweak. I've also tried autohotkey, which plays better with the two keyboards, but has other issues.

Really, what is needed from the CB point of view is a fully configurable keyboard map, like that provided by VC++. In VC++ I simply map the Insert key to a macro that does nothing.

For fun I did this:

EditorTweaks plugin


--- Code: ---svn checkout http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/cbilplugin/branches/EditorTweaks

--- End code ---

This version:
1/ insert key disabled in editor (will make an option in the future)
2/ option to toggle word wrap by right click in menu -> editor tweaks -> word wrap
3/ option to toggle line numbers by right click in menu -> editor tweaks -> show line numbers

on second thoughts, 2 and 3 should be in the edit menu. maybe in the next version...

Do they not interfere with the checkboxes in "Settings -> Editor" ?
Or do you toggle the appropriate settings in the config-manager also ?

these are transitory changes to the per editor settings. the settings->editor are still the defaults when you open/create a file. I haven't tested for nasty side effects :)
