NAME

       elinkskeys - ELinks WWW browser key bindings

SYNOPSIS

       ~/.elinks/elinks.conf

DESCRIPTION

       Key bindings for elinks should be placed in a file called ~/.elinks/elinks.conf. Note that any information regarding their format/structure
       may not be up-to-date. If you will discover that, please feed us with a patch.

       Key binding statements are of the form:

	      bind "keymap" "keystroke" = "action"

       where:

       keymap is main, edit, or menu.

       keystroke
	      is a case sensitive key, which you can prefix with Ctrl- or Alt-.  Ctrl- must be followed by an uppercase key.  See below for a list
	      of valid keys.

       action is what the key should do.  The actions available are dependent on the keymap, and are listed separately below.

       All words/strings may all be quoted "like so".  Backslashes are escape characters, even if not between quotes.  Lines beginning with a hash
       character (#) are comments.

       Keys can be unbound just by binding them to "none" action.  It may be of use if you accidentally type a key often.

KEYS

       Valid keys are: alphanumeric characters, punctuation, Enter, Backspace, Tab, Escape, Left, Right, Up,  Down,  Insert,  Delete,  Home,  End,
       PageUp, PageDown, F1 to F12.

       Some  keys  will  need  to  be quoted or escaped.  For example, space can be written as " " (quote space quote), and the quote itself as "
       (backslash quote).  Backslash can be written as \ (double backslash).
