I'm very new to emacs, and can't seem to get cua-mode to work by default. I'm using emacs 26.3 with spacemacs 0.300 on Kubuntu 20.04.1
I have set (cua-mode t)
in my .spacemacs
, and cua-mode shows up as active when I check the M-x menu
, but the cua commands won't work until I toggle cua-mode in the M-x menu
(i.e. turn it off, and then on again), then they work perfectly.
This gets old, and I would really like to have those commands working by default.
I've tried adjusting a few settings to no avail, here are the related lines in my .spacemacs
now:
(cua-mode t)
(setq cua-auto-tabify-rectangles nil) ;; Don't tabify after rectangle commands
(transient-mark-mode 1) ;; No region when it is not highlighted
(setq cua-keep-region-after-copy t) ;; Standard behaviour
(setq org-CUA-compatible t)
Thanks for reading, any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated!
