Let's say I'm completing a file with counsel-find-file. I then press M-o to show the menu with available actions. If within that menu, I press C-g, I get the message "C-g is not bound".

The expected behavior would be for the menu to quit (and to go back to where I was completing the file name).

How can I set the behavior I want? (I don't know what is the keymap used by Counsel's menu and also don't know how to quit the menu).

  • That's what it does for me (C-g quits the menu and returns me to the file selection interface) – Tyler Jan 22 '20 at 22:29

    If that doesn't work for you, likely there's something weird in your configuration that changed the default. The keymap is ivy-minibuffer-map, and it should include (7 . minibuffer-keyboard-quit) when you view it with C-h v. – Tyler Jan 22 '20 at 22:36
  • Do you see the same thing when you start Emacs with emacs -Q (no init file)? If not then bisect your init file to find the culprit. – Drew Jan 22 '20 at 22:55

  • Thanks you. I created an init.el file that only loads Ivy and Counsel but still have the problem. I'm using Emacs 26.3 on Linux. – scaramouche Jan 23 '20 at 19:41
  • that sounds like a bug. You might want to contact the package author - they'll want to know your Emacs version, and the version of counsel that you're using. That should be available from the package list. – Tyler Jan 23 '20 at 21:20
