Subject: Re: bind the Ctrl-m key but not bind return
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2007 11:47:38 +0300	[thread overview]

Ok, I got it.

You put something like this in the map file you load with loadkeys:
control keycode 50 = F2

that means ctrl + m will send the F2 key.
and in your .emacs file you put:

(define-key globalmap [(f2)] 'my-command)

So, I use an additional function key (F2) for linking the ctlr+m stuff 
to it.

Maybe it could be done more ellegant, that's the solution I've found. 
But pay attention: in X (fedora and red had) probably won't work, 
because X settings override the keymap file somehow.
But in X you can use xmodmap.
