I don't understand how this is to be used:

(quail-defrule ",q" "abcd")

After evaluating this, and typing ,q, I get an underscored a: but how am I supposed to select one of the other characters? Doing (quail-next-translation) does start going through them, but only after inserting an a.

  • I've no idea how quail works. But how would you select between abc and xyz if you did (quail-defrule ",q" ["abc" "xyz"])? From the docstring, it sounds like the same sort of choice.

Try

(quail-defrule ",q" ["abcd"])

    It would help if you would elaborate, e.g., explain why/how this corrects the mistake.

  • Yeah, I know the function takes a vector argument too, I was just curious about how the string argument is supposed to be used.
