Here is another way to do a new prefix command and to have it work globally and on global commands, if that is what you are doing: ;; Create a new prefix command: C-o (define-prefix-command 'C-o-prefix) (global-set-key "\C-o" 'C-o-prefix) ;; Assign `C-o m' to do something useful (global-set-key "\C-om" (lambda () (interactive) (message "Humans are sure fun to watch.
