keyconfig 20110522

[mad.engineer]

dorando, morat:

I've assigned the following code for the 'Send Now' function that you provided a while back, in TB 17.0.3, OS X:

var nsIPromptService = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/embedcomp/prompt-service;1"]
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIPromptService);

var flags =
nsIPromptService.BUTTON_POS_0 * nsIPromptService.BUTTON_TITLE_IS_STRING +
nsIPromptService.BUTTON_POS_1 * nsIPromptService.BUTTON_TITLE_IS_STRING;

if(nsIPromptService.confirmEx(null, "Send Now", "Do you want to send (Y/N)?", flags, "&Yes", "&No", null, null, {}) == 0)
goDoCommand("cmd_sendNow");


Lately, I've noticing the following in the Error Console, though this error occasionally show up [The Send Now itself is working OK though]:

Timestamp: 2/22/13 9:35:43 AM
Error: An error occurred executing the cmd_sendNow command: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0xc1f30001 (NS_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED) [nsIMsgCompose.SetDocumentCharset]" nsresult: "0xc1f30001 (NS_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://messenger/content/messengercompose/MsgComposeCommands.js :: SetDocumentCharacterSet :: line 2467" data: no]
Source File: chrome://global/content/globalOverlay.js
Line: 79

wondering if the above error has anything to do with the Keyconfig code that I've listed above?. This is just my guess since it is referencing "An error occurred executing the cmd_sendNow command". Can you please advise. Thanks

First of all Dorando, this Keyconfig extension will solve (if I can get it to work) a -massive- problem I've had with Thunderbird 17.0.3.

Let me apologize, I haven't had the time to scan through the entire 165 page thread for this and if I've missed the answer to my issue sorry to bother you for a direct link.

Downloaded the extension from here: http://mozilla.dorando.at/

The extension auto directed the installation to Firefox, but I'm not finding the magic series of motions to get it to install properly to Thunderbird 17.0.3.

Though I am a novice with this sort of thing, I like to think I've figured out my share of coding/extension issues in my time, however, I did register at mozillaZine's forum simply to ask if you can make help me with the Mark Replied/Unmark replied code work.

Code: Select all

user_pref("keyconfig.main.xxx_key__Mark Msg Answered", "!][][][var hdr=GetDBView().hdrForFirstSelectedMessage; hdr.folder.addMessageDispositionState(hdr, 0);;");
user_pref("keyconfig.main.xxx_key__Mark Msg Answered", "!][][][var hdr=GetDBView().hdrForFirstSelectedMessage; GetDBView().db.MarkHdrReplied(hdr,true,null);"); 

I didn't see a way to install the extension directly to TB, but when I saved the pref.js file and reopened TB, it did say something was installing.

The issue I'm having is, though I can see the Keyconfig extention within Firefox Addons tab with the options accessible, the "Keyconfig" option within TB (both under Tools and within the Addons tab; ctrl + shift + F12 is not bringing up the options either) does not appear. (I have also turned off the system and rebooted with no luck)

If you can help, I would be very much in your debt.

Thanks,

Jeramy

Assumable, but the same error should happen with File > Send Now.

The extension auto directed the installation to Firefox, but I'm not finding the magic series of motions to get it to install properly to Thunderbird 17.0.3.

In the Browser: Context Menu > Save Link As…
In Thunderbird: Tools > Add-ons > Button next to the Search box > Install Add-on From File…

You can also drag keyconfig.xpi link from Firefox window onto Add-ons Manager in Thunderbird window.

Thank you Dorando

If it is possible copying like below:

Hi dorando!
I have been using your excellent plugin to make a binding to cycle tabs. F1 is previous tab, F2 is next tab. However, on some pages those keys get caught out. For example, on Google Spreadsheet, F2 is defined to be "edit spreadsheet cell" and that takes precedence over what I set in keyconfig. I guess that keyconfig somehow uses the top level dom element to set its bindings, whereas the website catches the key press event somewhere further down the tree. Can you help me configure keyconfig so that it takes precedence over those websites? I really hate google for that key combo now, because I can't turn it off

Currently not possible, see Bug 380637 - Should web pages be able to override the browser's keyboard shortcuts?.

You could try to build an extension handling keypress events before they reach the content by opening your Profile and create within the extensions folder a folder named userxul@nobody containing:

install.rdf

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<rdf:RDF

overlay chrome://browser/content/browser.xul chrome://userxul/content/browser.xul 

browser.xul

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<overlay xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul">

<script type="application/javascript"><![CDATA[ window.addEventListener("keypress", function (event){
 var modifiers = ["Alt","Control","Meta","Shift","OS"]
 .filter(event.getModifierState, event).join(" ");

 switch(event.keyCode) {
  case KeyboardEvent.DOM_VK_F1:
   if(modifiers == "") {
    gBrowser.tabContainer.advanceSelectedTab(-1,true);
    event.preventDefault();
    event.stopPropagation();
   }
  break;

  case KeyboardEvent.DOM_VK_F2:
   if(modifiers == "") {
    gBrowser.tabContainer.advanceSelectedTab(1,true);
    event.preventDefault();
    event.stopPropagation();
   }
  break;
 }

},true); ]]></script>

</overlay>

(note that the files should not contain any space at the start).

Would like to remap Ctrl-F4 to close a window instead of a tab. How do I disable the Firefox's bulit-in Ctrl-F4 handling?

[firefoxuse]

is there a code to "close duplicate tabs" ???

thanks!

@firefoxuse

Try this:

Code: Select all

// remove all duplicate tabs
a:for (var i = 0; i < gBrowser.tabContainer.childNodes.length; i++) {
  for (var j = 0; j < gBrowser.tabContainer.childNodes.length; j++) {
    var m = gBrowser.tabContainer.childNodes[i].linkedBrowser.currentURI.spec;
    var n = gBrowser.tabContainer.childNodes[j].linkedBrowser.currentURI.spec;
    if (i != j && j != gBrowser.tabContainer.selectedIndex && m == n) {
      gBrowser.removeTab(gBrowser.tabContainer.childNodes[j]);
      i = i - 1; continue a;
    }
  }
}

is there a way to have a button for this???

thanks!!!

[morat]

Is there a way to have a button for this?

No. The keyconfig extension allows you to create shortcuts, not buttons.

[WildcatRay]

Isn't there a custom buttons addon?

Isn't there a custom buttons addon?

is there? which one?
