My new Fedora platform's X environment eats C-A-a, so I need another
binding. I can manually type:
A-x global-set-key<enter>
<<three keys held: C-s-a>> beginning-of-defun<enter>
every time I start emacs, but that is not any fun.
Nor is <escape>-<release>-'a'<release>. Escape is way
too far from the home keys.
I can put:
(global-set-key [C-s-a] 'beginning-of-defun)
in my .emacs file, and the binding shows up as:
C-s-a beginning-of-defun
Unfortunately, that is not recognized. I need this:
<C-s-a> beginning-of-defun
in the table. And, if there is any comprehensible
documentation of how to spell these things existing
anywhere, I am not able to locate it.
If there is anybody with any emacs development ability
out there reading this, is there any way possible to
have some function say, ``insert-key-name'' that will
take my ``<<three keys held: C-s-a>>'' and insert
whatever magic spelling it takes to be able to create
a valid:
(global-set-key <<GOBBELDY_GOOK_GOES_HERE>> `somefunction)
PLEASE? please please? It feels like every time my platform
wiggles, I wind up spending hours and hours and hours just
trying to figure out how to bind standard functions to standard
keys because some standard key gets hosed. *sigh*. Thank you. :(
Regards, Bruce
