Keyboard Translate

Keyboard Translate

[Valentin Plechinger]

Hello,
I have some trouble with keyboard-translate

This is in my .emacs
...
(keyboard-translate ?\C-p ?\C-t)  ; translate 
(keyboard-translate ?\C-e ?\C-p)  ; translate 
(keyboard-translate ?\C-f ?\C-e)  ; translate 
...

The Problem is that this doesn't get evaluated when the emacs daemon starts, so I have to eval it by hand.
Also if I close the frame where my .emacs is opened after evaluating, it stops working and I have to evaluate my .emacs again. 
Which sucks... a lot...

Any clues how to solve this?

Cheers,
Valentin

M-[ (i.e. the [ key pressed with the meta modifier) is synonymous in Emacs
to ESC [ (at least unless you change the value of meta-prefix-char), so
you've added not just a binding to M-[ but also to ESC [.

Since the bindings in function-key-map are only used if the key would
otherwise be unbound, the translation of ESC [ 1 ~ into [home] is prevented
by your M-[ binding.

Hello Everybody,

 

 After solving the my previous question

 (how to insert unicode char -> ucs-insert),

 there is another problem:

 

 I successfully defined the following key:

 (define-key text-mode-map "\M-[" (lambda () (interactive nil)(ucs-insert "
0170")))

 and it works. 

But the [home] is lost:

the home key produces ESC [ 1 ~ and is not recognized.

I tried 

(define-key function-key-map "\e[1~" [home])

but it has no effect, and 

(keyboard-translate "\e[1~" "[home]")

but it is syntactically wrong.



Any idea?



TERM=screen and emacs is 21.4.1



Thanks for any help.

(I am sorry to disturb you with such stupid questions,

but I have difficulties in configuring emacs...)



Regards,

Bela

This is my .emacs and it solved the problem for me, try to adapt it :
(if window-system
    (set-terminal-coding-system 'iso-8859-15-unix)
    (set-keyboard-coding-system 'iso-8859-15-unix)
    (set-language-environment 'Latin-9)
    (define-key function-key-map "\e[7~" [home])
    (define-key function-key-map "\e[8~" [select])
    (define-key function-key-map "\e[7^" [ctl_home])
    (define-key function-key-map "\e[8^" [ctl_select])
    (global-set-key [select] 'end-of-line)
    (global-set-key [home] 'beginning-of-line)
    (global-set-key [ctl_home] 'beginning-of-buffer)
    (global-set-key [ctl_select] 'end-of-buffer))
