That approach works quite well, thanks. My goal was to be able to call
emms-random with a single keystroke when the initial call required two
keystrokes. This is because I've put all my emms keystrokes after
C-H-s-c to keep them organized. Now I can hit C-H-s-c C-H-s-r to call
emms-random once, and every time I hit C-H-s-r after that, it calls
emms-random again. It's a bit frivolous I guess, but it was more about
learning emacs programming than anything else. Thanks for the help
everyone.
