That gives the "end of file" error message I described earlier (quoting character problem). But you fixed it too: > (kbd "s-\\") -- sorry. This works, but emacs complains: "Unknown modifier"! My method with ?\134 seems to be the best for the compiler, hard to read but I can add a comment. This seems to be a case where using octal is the only way to get quiet compilation. (Maybe?)

Well, read-kbd-macro probably does not return a function name. Why not the following?
