Subject: Non-character input events
Date: 20 Mar 2003 18:21:13 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <wkvfydbp5i.fsf@TheWorld.com> (raw)
When a routine I have written is expecting a character & instead sees
(e.g.) one of the function keys on the keyboard, it complains that it
has seen a non-character input event. Presumably, therefore, Emacs
has some way of recognizing such events. Where is the documentation
for that? "Apropos" yields nothing, and info merely admits that they
exist. I know how to bind commands to those keys, but only thru
chitchat in newsgroups (monkey see, monkey do). What do I do if I am
writing Elisp code and want it to do something other than beep when it
encounters an f1?
