neovide: Unable to map in Neovide
Describe the bug
As Neovide is a GUI and not limited by terminal emulators, I would expect any combination of keys to be bindable. For example, <S-Space> (Shift+Space) is a key combination I have used a lot in GVim, but it doesn’t appear to work in Neovide. Instead, the keybinding for <Space> is executed.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Open Neovide
nnoremap <S-Space> :echom "Test!"<CR>- Press Shift+Space
Expected behavior
I would expect this to write the message “Test!”.

This should be fixed by #1899, it would be great if you can test that.
It’s fixed in the next release (PR https://github.com/neovide/neovide/pull/1483, related comment). I built it locally as described in that last issue and it fixed it for me.
🤦🏻♂️ I had tried several variations and must have caught it at a bad time. I did confirm I reproduced with p vs P though. Updated original comment.
