I tried the following: (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map [?\C-?\M-k] 'gnus-summary-kill-thread) But this gives: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-read-syntax "?") read(#) preceding-sexp() eval-last-sexp-1(nil) eval-last-sexp(nil) call-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil nil) When I use: (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map [?\C-?\M-k] 'gnus-summary-kill-thread) I do not get an error, but the key combination does not work also. What is the correct way to define the key combination? -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof
