some key binding does not work #168

Closed

Description

I'm running a french version of windows 7 x64 and have notice the following bindings does not work with windows edit mode :

Alt+. (YankLastArg) (I've also tried Alt+; )
Ctrl+Alt+Shift+? (ShowKeyBindings)
Alt+/ (WhatIsKey)

is it because i'm running a non english version of windows?

    The language version of Windows shouldn't matter

    I haven't spent much time on non-English keyboard layouts, there are definitely some differences with these bindings on a French layout.

    You might find a workaround by binding things directly via Set-PSReadlineKeyHandler, but it might take some fiddling, e.g. the shift state for a period is different between English and French keyboards. In other cases, the scan code is different (as is the case for '?'), that might be the source for the other problems.

    maybe you can provide an xml file to adapt the default keybinding based on the langage/keyboard layout ?

    I believe this is fixed in #561.

    I'll publish a pre-release version to the PowerShell Gallery as soon as they support pre-releases.

    If you'd like to try a fix before that, you can build the lastest yourself from the master branch, or
    grab a build from AppVeyor like this one.

    Note the version number is now 2.0, so be sure to copy the contents to \PSReadLine\2.0.

    I'll have an official prerelease build out next week if you want to verify this is fixed, otherwise you can grab a build out of appveyor here.
