            Bug ID: 41732
           Summary: wineconsole: changing to emacs mode requires restart
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.9.23
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: tools
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: jre.winesim at gmail.com
      Distribution: ---

Changing the wineconsole to emacs mode only takes effect after restarting the
wineconsole.

In a newly created wineprefix:
$ wineconsole
Right-click -> Properties
Setup - Current settings -> Configuration
-> Choose Edition: Emacs
-> Keep "Modify only current session"
==> Emacs shortcuts get printed literally to the command prompt. E.g.
"foo" + "Ctrl" + "w" results in "foo^W" instead of moving "foo" to the  buffer.

If I change it to Emacs and then choose "Retain these settings for later
sessions" it works, but only after restarting the wineconsole. E.g. "foo" +
"Ctrl" + "w" removes "foo" from the terminal prompt and puts it in the buffer.

The same if I directly change the defaults
$ wineconsole
Right-click -> Set defaults
Setup - Default settings -> Configuration
-> Choose Edition: Emacs
==> Shortcut is written literally to the command prompt.
-> Restart wineconsole
==> Shortcut works as expected.
