I am new to Emacs. I watched a video about org-mode and trying to implement it while watching. However, I found it different while editing Emacs GUI, gnome-terminal and Guake terminal.

My laptop runs an Ubuntu 16.04.

I found that every key binding works exactly the same as in the video, however, when it comes to Guake terminal and Gnome-terminal, for some little key bindings, they are different. (I started Emacs using emacs -nw, and I have disabled the Alt key from associating with the menu bar and HUD.)

The one that is different is when I have a line like this :

** UNDO item1

Then I would like to insert a new line after it.

When pressing Alt+Shift+Enter, in Emacs GUI, it comes with

** UNDO

while in gnome-terminal, it comes with

**

without the UNDO.

Then in Guake terminal, it just comes with nothing but a new line.

Could anyone tell me what makes the difference?

Is there any way that I can use Emacs in Guake terminal exactly the same as it is Emacs GUI?

  • I've never heard of Guake, but I presume this is simply a duplicate of https://emacs.stackexchange.com/q/18000 and friends? From your description, I would expect that if you type `C-h k` and then Alt+Shift+Enter, Emacs would describe the sequence it *actually received* differently in each of your three scenarios. – phils Dec 31 '17 at 01:18
  • yes you are right. they actually received different commands. Thanks – Zhouteng Ye Dec 31 '17 at 03:00
