Suppose you do
(let ((map minibuffer-local-map))
(define-key map [(control ?p)] 'previous-history-element)
(define-key map [(control ?n)] 'next-history-element))
Now, ido defines its own map that inherits from minibuffer-local-map. In
this map, C-p is bound to ido-toggle-prefix, so one thing you may want to do
is move ido-toggle-prefix to another key, so that it stops shadowing your
C-p binding. Therefore you would do
(define-key ido-common-completion-map [(control ?o)] 'ido-toggle-prefix)
(unbind-key ido-common-completion-map [(control ?p)])
where unbind-key is a function that removes any reference to a key from the
given map.
Without unbind-key, you have to define the same binding in both maps, which
can be inconvenient if later you decide to change it. It's not
super-annoying but in my opinion it would be nice to have a function like
unbind-key.
Cheers.
