Re: backtick as key

[Kaushal Modi <kaushal.modi@gmail.com>]

Are you running "emacs -nw", or emacs GUI?

I evaluated the below:

(global-set-key (kbd "C-` C-}") (lambda() (interactive) (message "Hi")))

and it works fine.

C-h c C-` C-} prints

C-` C-} runs the command (lambda nil (interactive) (message "Hi"))

and typing C-` C-} displays Hi in the echo area.

On the latest build of emacs from emacs-25, in terminal mode (emacs -Q
-nw), C-` seems to be detected as C-@ which is bound to set-mark-command by
default.

So probably we cannot use C-` in terminal mode?
