how to bind event-apply-meta-modifier

how to bind event-apply-meta-modifier

[Andrés Ramírez]

Hi.

I have a nokia n900 (great device, not replacement for it until now)
the kbd does NOT have an "ESC" key.
the kbd DOES HAVE "CTRL" key

So I would like to do something like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(global-set-key (kbd "C-x w") (lambda () (interactive) (event-apply-meta-modifier nil)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But that is not the right way of doing this.
¿How Should I get it to work?

Although, I am afraid, I cannot help with your emacs question (I'm new). 
You may wish to consider the following as a replacement for your N900.

Hi.

For my own information in the future:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define-key key-translation-map (kbd "C-x w") 'event-apply-meta-modifier)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
