Let me be a little more clear about what I am trying to accomplish.
I understand how to create a keymap and how to use define-minor-mode
to create a mode that makes use of my keymap.
What I wanted to do was to assign my keymap to the \C-b key in the
LaTeX-mode-map in AucTeX. Is there a way of doing that in my minor
mode package or do I need to add something to my .emacs to accomplish
this?
This is what I have so far but I haven't found a way of getting
what I am looking for yet.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(defvar bibs-map nil "\
Keymap containing bindings to the Bibs functions.")
(define-prefix-command 'bibs-map) ;;; <---Is this necessary?
(define-key bs-map "g" 'bibs-get-ref)
(define-key bs-map "v" 'bibs-find-v-num)
(define-key bs-map "f" 'bibs-fix-quotes)
(define-minor-mode bibs-mode
""
;; Initial Value
nil
;; The indicator for the mode line
" Bibs"
;; The minor mode bindings
'bs-map
(...) ;;; <------ Is there something I can put here
;;; to associate the (unused) \C-b key in AucTeX
;;; LaTeX-mode-map as a prefix key for bibs-map?
)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alternatively, I could (if necessary) put something in my .emacs that
associates bibs-map with the \C-b in LaTeX-mode-map. I just don't know
how to do that.
Also, when I toggle off bibs-mode it should remove the keymap from the
\C-b prefix key in LaTeX-mode-map, right? Again, how do I do that?
