Can't bind default emacs keys without conflicts

[NicholasBHubbard]

Say for example I bind a command to C-f. Now when I hit the key bound to meow-right it runs the command bound to C-f instead of meow-right. This is because many of the meow commands are implemented to run as kbd-macros.

I continue to run into these conflicts, and I don't understand why this would be desirable behavior. Is there any workaround for this or am I just using Meow wrong?

Hi,
There's a variable called meow--kbd-forward-char, if you really have to change the keybinding, you have to change this variable.
For reason, I can give some examples:

1. if you want to forward a character, you use forward-char. But if you are using vterm, the command on C-f is not forward-char, instead it is vterm-send-C-f. If we use forward-char, it will not work in vterm(But actually, currently adapting with vterm is not complete, forward word still using a command, not command on M-f.).

2. If you want to forward delete a char, you use delete-char. But when using smartparens, it will be remapped to sp-delete-char which can keep the balance of parentheses.

Meow is designed to use with vanilla Emacs, especially with almost no tweaking on basic keybindings.
