The square brackets say it's a vector, and ?x is the reader-syntax for characters. So it's a vector with exactly one item, the character `a'. So this statement binds the command `org-agenda' to the key `a' in the keymap `mode-specific-map'. You could have written any of the following with equal results: (define-key mode-specific-map "?a" 'org-agenda) (define-key mode-specific-map (kbd "a") 'org-agenda) I prefer the `kbd' version. That understands the keybinding syntax that is displayed in `C-h k', and which is used in all manuals, too. ,----[ C-h f kbd RET ] | kbd is a Lisp macro in `subr.el'. | | (kbd KEYS) | | Convert KEYS to the internal Emacs key representation. | KEYS should be a string constant in the format used for | saving keyboard macros (see `edmacro-mode'). `---- Bye, Tassilo _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
