Troubles with wordDelimiters

[Nicolas Tardieu]

Thank you very much for your answer Jörg.

Please excuse my unknowlegde, but I tried to re-bind Ctrl+RightArrow in my
$HOME/.nedit/nedit.rc file by writing :

NEdit*text.Translations: #override \n\
      Ctrl<Key>osfRight: forward_word( ["nobell"] ) \n

with no success.

What am I doing wrong??????
