The problem might be with QScintilla 1, which is used by eric3. Eric3 doesn't 
handle the keys inside the editor itself. As far as I know Phil changed 
something in this area in the latest QScintilla2 release. Is it an option for 
to change to eric4? Btw, eric 3.9.1 is really old. Latest 3.9 release is 
3.9.5
