Emacs Debugger Error when using org-defkey

[Christopher Dimech]

   I am tryong to set keybindings for dragging line backwards and forwards
   using
   org-def but emacs is complaining when I do "emacs  --debug"
   ( org-defkey org-mode-map (kbd "C-t l b") 'org-drag-line-backward )
   ( org-defkey org-mode-map (kbd "C-t l f") 'org-drag-line-forward )


   emacs  --debug
   Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function org-defkey)
     (org-defkey org-mode-map (kbd "C-t l b") 'org-drag-line-backward)

Yes, that function is not known to Emacs until you load Org.  It's not
autoloaded.

If you only use this function only for org key bindings, simply wrap
your stuff into

  (with-eval-after-load 'org
    ...)

Or do

  (require 'org-keys)

or even

  (require 'org)

depending on what else you need in your config files.
