Cannot bind <tab> in keypad

[tbdcit]

The following does not seem to work

(meow-leader-define-key
 '("TAB" . meow-last-buffer)
 '("<tab>" . meow-last-buffer))

I have (setq meow-keypad-leader-dispatch "C-c") and C-c <tab> works as expected, but <space> <tab> does not.

I can't reproduce this; your code works for me. Would you post your whole config somewhere?

It seems that the problem is only in modes that bind "C-c TAB". In org-mode for example: describe-key "C-c TAB" reports meow-last-buffer but meow-keypad-describe-key TAB reports org-ctrl-c-tab.

The meow part of my config can be found here: https://purple-noell-46.tiiny.site.

binding TAB or <tab> in meow's meow-leader-define-key appears to only work as expected in GUI mode. In terminal mode, it fails; as it doesn't seem to properly resolve TAB and <tab>, instead falling back to whatever the self-insert-command resolve to... looking at the code for meow-keypad, it appears to explicitly ignore terminal local maps in lieu of gui local maps.

the workaround I have works (in GUI and terminal) by forcibly rebindinding the keypad keymap with a custom meow-last-buffer function:

    ;; light wrapper around meow-last-buffer so binding hacks below will function
    (defun custo/meow-last-buffer ()
      "Goto last buffer."
      (interactive)
      (meow-last-buffer nil)
      (meow-keypad-quit) ;; or use (meow--keypad-quit) to prevent the mode-line spam
      )
    ;; forces which-key to display binding
    (meow-leader-define-key
      '("TAB" . custo/meow-last-buffer)
      '("<tab>" . custo/meow-last-buffer)
      )
    ;; fix the broken binding above in terminals by avoiding most of the problematic magic wrappers
    (meow-define-keys
      'keypad
      '("TAB" . custo/meow-last-buffer)
      '("<tab>" . custo/meow-last-buffer)
      )
