Hi,
I have defined the following in my .emacs file
$>cat .emacs
--Snip--
(global-set-key [delete] 'delete-char)
(global-set-key [kp-delete] 'delete-char)global-set-key [f1] 'dired)
(global-set-key [f2] 'dired-omit-toggle)
(global-set-key [f3] 'shell)
(global-set-key [f4] 'find-file)
(global-set-key [f5] 'compile)
(global-set-key [f6] 'visit-tags-table)
(global-set-key [f8] 'add-change-log-entry-other-window)
(global-set-key [f12] 'make-frame)
--Snip--
However none of these mapped keys work. Am i forgetting to do something?
All help appreciated.
Also where can i see error logs that emacs might spit out.
Shank

Try
C-x C-f ~/.emacs RET
in Emacs to open your .emacs. Is it the file above that is opened?

To debug errors in ~/.emacs, launch emacs with: emacs --debug-init

Check the key binding, type: C-h k DEL then: C-h k F12
