With Emacs compiled from master, after Nicolas Goaziou's fix to remove the
<tab> binding, my tab key was no longer bound to org-cycle, but instead to
outline-cycle from outline.el
If I comment out line 185 in outline.el then TAB will bind to org-cycle.
Does outline.el need to be fixed too?
——snippet from outline.el
(defvar outline-mode-cycle-map
(let ((map (make-sparse-keymap)))
(let ((tab-binding `(menu-item
"" outline-cycle
;; Only takes effect if point is on a heading.
:filter ,(lambda (cmd)
(when (outline-on-heading-p) cmd)))))
(define-key map [tab] tab-binding)
(define-key map (kbd "TAB") tab-binding)
(define-key map (kbd "<backtab>") #'outline-cycle-buffer))
map)
"Keymap used by `outline-mode-map' and `outline-minor-mode-cycle'.")
I don’t see outline as a minor mode listed when I use C-h m while in an org
file expecting org-cycle.
