UserStartup tweaks for traditional MPW users.

By default Eddie comes set up with some contemporary keyboard shortcuts that may be all wrong for MPW purists. No worries, a few small tweaks/additions to UserStartup file should be all that is needed to get things back to working the way they should be. The most straightforward way is to edit the ~/Library/Preferences/com.el34.eddie/UserStartup, i.e. the local UserStartup. Alternately you may edit the main UserStartup instead but you will need to remember to copy over any changes to the new copy when you upgrade Eddie to a new version.

UnsetKey Tab

This makes pressing tab delete the selection and insert a tab. (The default shortcut is mapped to the indent command).

SetKey Command-H EnterAndFind

Command-H has been appropriated by Mac OS X for Hiding windows many many years ago. If you still prefer this to be the "Enter and Find" shortcut, this is how you can set it back to what it should be.

SetKey UpArrow UpArrowSingleLineScroll
SetKey DownArrow DownArrowSingleLineScroll
SetKey Command-Option-UpArrow GoToHome
SetKey Command-Option-DownArrow GoToEnd

The XXXSingleLineScroll variants of Up and Down Arrow commands only scroll one line at a time to reveal the cursor. The default Up/Down Arrow commands scroll by half a page.

EditKeymap Shell_map
UnsetKey Return
SetKey Enter ShellExecute
EditKeymap Editor_map

This switches the shortcut to Execute from Return to the traditional MPW Enter. Note how the shortcut is configured to only apply to Worksheet/Shell windows.
