OK, I looked over that info page but am still confused. It mentions a variable, not a keymap. I tried variants of global-setkey but to no avail. A couple times, I got an error saying non prefix assigned or something. I also tried doing a (setq "M-s" to the variable emacspeak-prefix) but the variable got updated but no key assignment. I've done key assignments in the past with global-set-key with no problems so what am I missing here? On Wed, Jul 04, 2007 at 09:17:06PM -0500, Robert D.
