I get a message in the minibuffer: " is undefined". On the other hand, the following advances the point by one line (without any selection), but I get a message "Function returns invalid key sequence": (define-key function-key-map [S-C-mouse-3] 'next-line) All in all, obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I couldn't figure it out yet. QUESTION: How can I correct the first form so that it does what I expect? Also, what causes this behavior? I'm not claiming any bug whatsoever, I'm just trying to understand, and actually the whole point of this exercise was just that. I'll appreciate any explanation and/or hints. thank you in advance. nusret ____________________________________________________________________________________ Park yourself in front of a world of choices in alternative vehicles.
