(my example above) You might want to use the emulation-mode-map-alists for that, then, since global-map is the keymap with the lowest priority. > - I want global dispatch functions for certain common operations. These > are "completion" and "symbol lookup". For completion, we now have such a function/command, it's called `completion-at-point' and dispatches on `completion-at-point-functions'. For symbol-lookup we don't have it yet. Patches welcome. Note that we don't have a key binding for either (tho completion-at-point can be available on TAB by setting tab-always-indent to `complete').
