The apps-key is the key in between the "Alt-GR"-key and the "CTRL"-key on the right side of the space-key. Normally it has the same function as a right mouse click I think, but it is undefined in Emacs. My normal Meta-key is "Alt" on the left side and it works well, but I'd like to have a second one on the right side. And the apps-key seems just right for this purpose. On the internet I've found a way to give it another function by doing this: (global-set-key [apps] 'preview-document) Is there a way to do the same thing, but with the Meta key instead of the command "preview-document"? By the way: I'm running Windows Vista... And I am not very proud of it :)
