Toggle Keybinding

Toggle Keybinding

[Paulo J. Matos]

Hi,
I'm setting in .emacs (cvs-emacs) the following:
(add-hook 'c++-mode-hook 'hs-minor-mode)

(add-hook 'c++-mode-hook
	  (lambda ()
	    (local-set-key "M-+" 'hs-toggle-hiding)))

For some reason the keybinding is not working. But if I do
local-set-key in emacs everything seems to go fine! :-)

Any ideas? Should the + in "M-+" be escaped somehow?

The key binding syntax is not right, use "\M-+" instead.
It is better to use c++-mode-map:

(add-hook 'c++-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (define-key c++-mode-map "\M-+" 'hs-toggle-hiding)))

It probably does, but you may have a hard time typing a capital M in
the buffer, since M is now a prefix.

| Any ideas? Should the + in "M-+" be escaped somehow?

No, the M should, in order to be interpreted as meta:

"\M-+" should do the trick.
You can also use a vector: [?\M-+].

Just a minor point: hs-minor-mode toggles, so what you really mean is:

(add-hook 'c++-mode-hook (lambda () (hs-minor-mode 1)))
