Please have a look at the doc of `eval-after-load'.  Your first argument
'flyspell-mode is not a name of a file or feature.  You want 'flyspell
or "flyspell".

keybinding trouble

[Frederik]

Hi there!

I try to bind the flyspell function flyspell-auto-correct-previous-word
to a key. First I tried to bind it to `C-.' but it seems that this
doesn't work in terminals. So came up with the following which doesn't
work, the key sequence stays "unknown" to emacs -- but I don't have a
clue why.

(eval-after-load 'flyspell-mode
	'(define-key flyspell-mode-map (kbd "C-c f")
         	'flyspell-auto-correct-previous-word))

I also tried "\C-c f", "C-c ." and "\C-c ." -- none of them works,
neither in GTK emacs nor in terminal mode.

Any hint is appreciated!
Regards

(kbd "C-c f") and (kbd "C-c .") are reasonable.
For just a string, lose the space: "\C-cf" and "\C-c.".

Does just loading flyspell-mode define the keymap?  Is the feature or library
actually named `flyspell-mode' and not `flyspell'?  (In my emacs -Q, there is
only flyspell.el.)

You can check the bindings for a given keymap using `C-h M-k'
(`describe-keymap'), from `help-fns+.el':

Thanks Drew!

The following works:
(eval-after-load 'flyspell
	'(define-key flyspell-mode-map (kbd "\C-cf")
		'flyspell-auto-correct-previous-word))

Also thanks to Michael!
