Hello the group.
I want to add a function to several hooks using dolist, but it doesn't
work as I thought. I know the reason is that the hook in the list is not
recgonized as a list, but I don't know how to fix it. Any help?
(dolist
(the-hook
'(c-mode-common-hook
java-mode-hook
perl-mode-hook
php-mode-hook
emacs-lisp-mode-hook))
(add-hook 'the-hook 'my-common-key-binding))

Don't quote the-hook. You want its value. The value of 'the-hook is the symbol
the-hook itself, not the value of that symbol.
