In the 1.1 Text and TextField widgets, Shift-space is bound to a selection action. This can cause problems when typing text, given that many people keep the Shift key down while typing the spaces between words. If this bothers you, it is possible to turn off the binding by adding the following lines to your .Xdefaults file: *XmText.translations: #override Shift ~Ctrl ~Meta ~Alt <Key>space: self-insert() *XmTextField.translations: #override Shift ~Ctrl ~Meta ~Alt <Key>space: self-insert() The action bound to Shift-space (key-select) is also available via Shift-osfSelect (whatever you have it defined as.)
