Editor Replace Button Hotkey

[rohitab]

Most dialogs in Far do not have hotkeys for the default button, since you can just press Enter. For example, in the Search dialog in Viewer/Editor/Help, the Search button does not have a hotkey. However, in the Replace dialog in the Editor, the Replace button has an Alt+R hotkey.

What do you think about removing the hotkey from the Replace button and assigning Alt+R to the Replace with edit control instead? It seems natural to me, to use Alt+S and Alt+R to switch between Search and Replace with boxes. It might inconvenience people that are accustomed to using the Alt+R/Alt+E hotkeys though.

MKadaner: I also noticed this discrepancy. I think this is a good idea. The decision is mostly for the language maintainers, except for there is no dedicated maintainer for English localization.

Thank you for reporting, @rohitab. @alabuzhev if you are fine with this breaking change, please assign the issue to me. Otherwise, consider closing it with prejudice. 🙂

Nice feature, @w17. I wonder though how many users are aware of it. ;)

[MKadaner]

Should it be described in help, by the way?

[w17]

it would be great.

[MKadaner]

Done in #628.

Excellent feature. I had no idea. I've been using Lua to do these customizations. This is so much easier.

Would definitely be useful to have this information in Help.

[MKadaner]

OK, I can do that. Any suggestions where to put it though. Interestingly, there is no likely section; neither Languages, nor Localization, nor Customization, nor even generic Useful features and everything else. I am thinking about a new article Localization: Customizing Dialogs.
