• prefixBinding ?-infix regex? ?-prompt str?
Build composite bindings. For instance, to create a binding ctrl-a opt-b
,
one must create a binding for ctrl-a
and associate it with this
command, then define a binding for opt-b
with ctrl-a
prefix. See the documentation of the [binding] command.
The -infix option is used to build composite bindings with
an infix so that the user can execute for instance ctrl-a 5 opt-b
(here
the infix is 5 and means that the action linked to the combo will receive
the value 5 as an additional argument which it can interpret in different
ways). The value of the -infix option is a regular expression which
describes which values are considered an infix: for instance [1-5r]
means that the infix could be a digit between 1 and 5 or the letter r.
The -prompt option is used to
provide a string to display in the status bar of the application. If it is
not specified, the command displays a default string.
See the Bindings with an infix section in
the reference for the [binding] command.
