I'm using Eclipse on Ubuntu with Emacs keybindings and whenever I type Alt-F the File menu appears, but I want the cursor to move forward one word.

I know in programs like Terminal I can disable menu shortcuts in Preferences, but Eclipse doesn't have such a setting.

Is there a way to disable menu shortcuts globally (I never use them) or at least within Eclipse?

A workaround I found was to remove the File menu from menubar then Alt-F won't match any menu shortcut and the keyboard shortcut will be triggered.

To remove a menu you go into Window -> Properties -> Customize Perspective and go to the Menu Visibility tab and uncheck File
