(Using current version of emacs on win32.) So I'm aware C-[ is something of a special key equating to ESC of course and presume this is why the following won't work as desired: (global-set-key (kbd "C-[") 'myFunction) ; doesn't help. (global-set-key (kbd "ESC") 'myFunction) ; doesn't help either I'd like to have ESC work "normally" in emacs but C-[ to do my own thing, and I have a good reason for this that I can explain if you like... Also I heavily use vim and I know there the C-[ and ESC equivalency is exactly the key bindings I want there, just FYI.Q Any ideas?
