Your patch + the change I propose solve an old bug I reported (the discussion is at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel/67080) were (global-set-key (kbd "C-M-º") 'my-command) produced a keybinding that `describe-key' didn't recognize. Or, put it differently, before: (event-basic-type (aref (kbd "C-M-º") 0)) => 2234 (event-basic-type (event-basic-type (aref (read-key-sequence "Type C-M-º: ") 0)) => 186 Now both return 2234. > If there is a ctrl bit to filter out, then lets filter it out. Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Juanma
