Description Michele 2006-09-12 07:58:08 EDT 
On linux 2.6.16 vanilla with custom config on FC5 i386 I can't use the DEL key. The bind on that key does not work and if I assign something from menus to that key it shows the key is "0X08" but I can't assign binds manually from console with /bind 0X08 something and that prevents me to use mod-specific commands like q3ut ut_radio binds
Comment 1 Michele 2006-09-12 07:58:57 EDT 
I tested it on boh q3ut 3.7 and plain q3a. the binary used is ioquake3-1.33_SVN797-0.1.i386.run
Comment 2 Michele 2006-09-12 08:02:07 EDT 
doing /bind 0x08 something istead of 0X08 like it is shown on menus works.

recognize '0x' and '0X' as hex notation in key bindings.

Patch to recognize both '0x' and '0X' (lowercase and uppercase 'x') in bind/unbind commands, instead of only lowercase ('0x').  To wit, makes quake3 recognize '0X08' (but still prints with uppercase ('0X') in menus).
Comment 4 Michele 2006-09-18 05:53:50 EDT 
The attached patch should be useful as a quick fix but what about ioquake3 not recognizing the DEL key properly ?

Fix to make the DEL key work again

Attached is a simple, simple patch that fixes the DEL key not working when compiling with SDL.

Setting a QA contact on all ioquake3 bugs, even resolved ones. Sorry if you get a flood of email from this, it should only happen once. Apologies for the incovenience.
