C-. is not an ascii character (though . is).  Try

(global-set-key (kbd "C-.") 'forward-char)

This line is not blank.

This should work for Emacs, but I'm not sure what about XEmacs:

(global-set-key (kbd "C-.") *****)

(global-set-key [?\C-.] *****) should work.
And so should (global-set-key [(control ?.)] *****).

C-. keybinding in (X)Emacs

[Yan Tang]

Hi, I want to bind `C-.' to some func in (X)Emacs, but I don't know how to define the key.
(global-set-key "\C-." *****) doestn't work.

And in XEmacs, (global-set-key '(control period) *****) doesn't work either.

(global-set-key "\M-." *****) works well, but I have reserved it for etags.

So how to define C-. keybinding?

Thanks in advance!
