[Kde-games-devel] ui.rc shortcuts problem

[Ian Wadham]

Hi everyone and Happy New Year ;-)

For some reason the shortcut keys in KGoldrunner have
stopped working during the last week or two.  This prevents
play in keyboard mode and also disables pausing the game.
I've googled high and low but found no mention of a format
change in ui.rc files --- or even any doco of the old format ;-)

The problem seems to be with assigning two keys to an action,
a default and an alternate.  Here's an example, an action under
the <Action Properties> tag:

    <Action shortcut="Right;L"          name="move_right" />

These alternates are set up for two-handed and one-handed
keyboard playing styles.

If I use Settings->Configure Shortcuts to restore the missing
keyboard assignments, it works for one session, but stores
the new assignments in ~/.kde/.../kgoldrunnerui.rc in the same
format I have used above --- so it fails again next session :-(

Any ideas?  My ui.rc file is attached.  The keyboard assignments
are near the end of the file.
All the best, Ian W.
