I've just tried it, but it doesn't work:

(global-set-key [(tab)] 'indent-for-tab-command)
(global-set-key [(control i)] 'ispell)

When I press C-h k C-i, Emacs tells me that TAB runs the command 
lisp-indent-line.

Try this:

 (define-key function-key-map [tab] 'indent-for-tab-command)

You mean (define-key global-map [tab] 'indent-for-tab-command) ?

It still does not work. Emacs keeps reading C-i as tab. Is there no way to 
change this?
The same is true for C-m and ret.

What's wrong and why do you want to change that? C-i is tab and C-m is
RET.

C-i and tab

[Boris H.]

Hi,

Emacs 21 reads C-i as Tab. How can I change this so I can remap C-i without 
affecting tab? I tried all sorts of global-set-key and -unset-key without 
luck.

You could remap [tab] (the function key) to what C-i is mapped now, and 
then remap C-i to something else.  Note that this will not work on 
character terminals where the TAB key produces C-i, so Emacs cannot 
distinguish between them.

C-i and TAB

[Boris H.]

Hi,

my Emacs 21.1.1 reads C-i as TAB. I want to remove this binding to rebind 
C-i. I tried 

(global-unset-key "\C-i")

which had no effect.
How do I make Emacs read C-i as C-i only?
