Hi Patricia,

To correct Michael's answer, the default shortcuts for navigation are Ctrl + Alt + something (you can see them in the navigation menu), but Ctrl + Alt + arrow is used by Unity and Gnome to switch between workspaces. You can change the navigation shortcuts by going to Edit -> Preferences -> Shortcuts. For example, you can depress the Ctrl key next to "Modifiers for Navigation Menu" so that you can use Alt + arrow to navigate instead.

However, I remember that in some old versions of Coq, changing the shortcuts from the Preferences window simply did not work (the shortcuts would not change) and that I had to go edit some configuration file to replace Ctrl + Alt by just Alt. Unfortunately I don't remember exactly which file it is. I am guessing this is what you tried to do. Did you try the coqiderc file? I am not sure what you mean by "gives a syntactic error". What gives you this message?

Best,

Ali Assaf

I couldn't configure the navigation commands.

(fwd, back, goto, etc) I have tried modifying the

coqide.keys file but the ; at the begining of the file

gives a syntactic error.

The coq version I have installed is 8.3 from

April 2012. The Ubuntu I have installed is

Precise.

I have tried modifying Edit/Preferences/Shortcuts

but it didn't work.

What can I do?

Regards,

Patricia

Dear Patricia,

 

I guess you mean the key combinations with Alt-key. The problem is that Unity uses the Alt key for its own purposes. So you can either tell Unity or CoqIDE to use a different key.

 

In CoqIDE you can do this under Edit/Preferences/Shortcuts easily.

 

In Unity I think it is more complicated because afaik you need to disable/redefine each shortcut individually, e.g. using the unity tweak tool.

 

Best regards,

 

Michael
