Which is a bit of a pain. Without restarting Emacs (how does one even do that 🤣) I have to upcase-char or insert-quoted “C” to get a capital ‘c’.

I have no idea what combination of keys I’ve hit to effect this change, but it does not happen on start-up.

Viewing lossage is not much help because quite a lot of time may have passed and my need to type “C”. (I am not Carl Carlson Chairman of the Classic Car Confabulation Committee. )

Does anyone have any ideas how even to debug this? I am flummoxed.

Many thanks!!

There is nothing funky about my keybindings…

(keymap-global-set "C-="     #'text-scale-increase) 
(keymap-global-set "C--"     #'text-scale-decrease)
(keymap-global-set "C-z"     #'undo-fu-only-undo) ;; suspend-frame
(keymap-global-set "C-S-z"   #'undo-fu-only-redo) 
(keymap-global-set "C-v"     #'yank) ;;  scroll-up
(keymap-global-set "C-x C-r" #'eval-print-last-sexp)
(keymap-global-set "C-s"     #'isearch-forward-regexp)
(keymap-global-set "C-r"     #'isearch-backward-regexp)
(keymap-global-set "C-M-r"   #'query-replace-regexp)

    Nope. I know the Emacs help system­ it’s one of Emacs’ killer features, IMHO.

    The “key” in C-h k is of course shift+c, but this never makes it through as such. Everytime this glitch in the matrix occurs, shift+c (s-c) gets echoe back to me in the echo area as “C-”

    Ofc I restarted Emacs and everything is hunky-dory once more… until next time.

    Also, I should have said that I am running a self-compiled 30.0.5, so I guess this may be a legit bug. It just seems so odd and random
