Hello,
Hello,First of all I would like to say that I'm starting for a week to program in LIsp and to use Emacs too.I'm reading such documentation like the emacswiki, the "intoduction to programming in Emacs Lisp".For a week I have planed to create a major-mode and from there I can launch a set of programs.My major-mode should have a main menu like mu4e.el.To start with coding I have used the text-mode.el and the source code of mu4e.Draft of the main menu:<center>Welcome Message </center><Menu1>General options</Menu1>[Q] to quit<Menu2>FTP</Menu2>[F3] to start<Menu3>IRC</Menu3>[F4] to startNote : The Welcome message should be in blue and the <Menu>text</Menu> in bold (or in a different color).My questions are the following:1) I have tried several set of functions to define a local-map that I can use for example F2 to run an external program and I still don't understand why my set of "local keys" are not loaded. I get the error message: <f2> is undefined.2) I cannot get working to have a set of 'face to put a text in blue and the other one in bold.3) I can run external program with (shell-command "cmd") but I cannot get Emacs "free" to do anything else I would like (this part is not included in the source code I have attached).Attached to the mail you will find the source code I have written.Many tanks for your help.Pascal
