Because CodeMirror's internal API is quite different from Emacs, they are only a loose approximation of actual emacs bindings, though.</p> <p>Also note that a lot of browsers disallow certain keys from being captured. For example, Chrome blocks both Ctrl-W and Ctrl-N, with the result that idiomatic use of Emacs keys will constantly close your tab or open a new window.</p> <script> CodeMirror.commands.save = function() { var elt = editor.getWrapperElement(); elt.style.background = "#def"; setTimeout(function() { elt.style.background = ""; }, 300); }; var editor = CodeMirror.fromTextArea(document.getElementById("code"), { lineNumbers: true, mode: "text/x-csrc", keyMap: "emacs" }); </script> </article>
