I want to unset the backspace key and I tried this:
(global-unset-key (kbd "<backspace>"))
Evaluating this in the buffer gives me nil
but still the backspace key works as expected. How to unbind this?
After unbinding when I do C-h k
on backspace it still shows me this:
DEL (translated from
<backspace>
) runs the command autopair-backspace, which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `autopair.el'.It is bound to DEL.
(autopair-backspace)
Possibly delete a pair of paired delimiters.
autopair
?backspace
key to some other key in autopair and all the other modes that has some binding forbackspace key
, then that would be very nice.(local-unset-key (kbd "<DEL>"))
or(global-unset-key (kbd "<DEL>"))
. Curiously, it works only in another buffer, not in*scratch*
buffer :\
