[Picker] How to prevent <C-c> to close the Picker window

[Harmos274]

tl;dr I would like to prevent <C-c> to close the window ?

Hello, i'm not sure if it has been addressed before, i didn't find anything about that on the discussions but maybe i missed it...

I use jk as shortcut for <C-c> in my nvim config, i like it. When i was using telescope typing jk in the input bar would just put me in the normal mode. It isn't the case in Picker it closes the window. I don't know how to prevent that.

In my video, first i type <Esc> to go to normal mode then i type i to go back to insert and finally jk to go back to normal mode again and it closes the window.

Here's a sample of my picker config:

    picker = {
      win = {
        input = {
          keys = {
            ['<C-c>'] = { '', mode = { 'i', 'n' } },
          },
        },
      },
    },

Why not bind your jk to <Esc> and avoid the problem altogether?

vim.keymap.set("i", "jk", "<esc>", { silent = true })

But, to answer your question, just set the right hand side to false in your code block above to disable a key mapping.
