I don't understand the following, in any XEmacs: Suppose I get a buffer, and switch on quail, using, say, chinese-tonepy. If I do C-h b , the output starts with Minor Mode Bindings for `quail-mode': key binding --- ------- .. ~ quail-start-translation € .. ÿ quail-start-translation Local Bindings: ......... The first range of keys starts with SPC (or at least, that's a SPC at the start of the line). Doing a map-keymap to print the bindings in quail-mode-map also shows a binding of SPC to quail-start-translation. Yet if I do C-h k SPC , I'm told that SPC is bound to self-insert-command ; and (lookup-key quail-mode-map ?\ ) tells me there's no binding of SPC there. Can somebody explain what's happening here? _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
