Dear Bug Team! I used the following command to "reset" the command split-window-horizontally: (global-set-key [(control x) 3] 'split-window-horizontally) ...which worked. It had the unfortunate side effect of also changing the behavior of [(control x) c] from save-buffers-kill-emacs to split-window-horizontally. According to the documentation in define-key (C-h f define-key), ascii characters are mapped to themselves: QUOTE A keysym may be represented by a symbol, or (if and only if it is equivalent to an ASCII character in the range 32 - 255) by a character or its equivalent ASCII code. /QUOTE The 'workaround' I found was to prefix the "3" with "?" as explained in define-key: (global-set-key [(control x) ?3] 'split-window-horizontally) Background: I redefine this key when I use an AZERTY keyboard, which has different characters (numbers are accessible using 'shift'), so when I switch back to QWERTY, I have this little macro to re-map the keys. Thanks, Scott ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux crowe.devel.redhat.com 2.4.21-27.EL #1 SMP Wed Dec 1 21:53:39 EST 2004 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ./configure 'x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu' '--prefix=/usr' '--datadir=/usr/share' '--docdir=/usr/lib64/xemacs-21.4.15/doc/' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--libdir=/usr/lib64' '--mandir=/usr/share/man/man1' '--with-gpm=yes' '--with-sound=native' '--with-pop' '--mail-locking=lockf' '--with-clash-detection' '--debug=yes' '--with-mule=yes' '--with-canna=yes' '--with-wnn=yes' '--with-xim=xlib' '--with-database=no' '--with-postgresql=no' '--with-ldap=no' '--with-hesiod=no' '--with-athena=3d' '--with-widgets=athena' '--with-menubars=lucid' '--with-scrollbars=lucid' '--with-dialogs=athena' '--with-msw=no' '--with-xfs=no' '--pdump' XEmacs 21.4.15 "Security Through Obscurity" configured for `x86_64-redhat-linux'.
