Hello world,
I download mail from my ISP, where it's spooled, to my own machine through
a mechanism that I hacked together. Don't ask.
Anyway, I wanted "g" in the group buffer to run my own elisp function to
"do the right thing". Redefining the key in my .gnus.el file doesn't work
because the definition goes away when gnus finishes loading. It also
goes away when I redefine it in gnus-load-hook.
So I finally arrived at the following:
;; Maybe there ought to be a gnus-group-load-hook?
(add-hook 'gnus-group-mode-hook (lambda nil
(define-key gnus-group-mode-map "g"
'get-new-mail-and-news)))
Is there a better way to do this? (And would that way be gnus-group-load-hook
a l\'a gnus-sum-load-hook? ;-)
--norm
P.S. I'm running gnus.5.4.45 under GNU Emacs 19.34.

You can use `eval-after-load'. It is not better, but perhaps a little more intuitive. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

No, that's the canonical way to alter mode-specific keymaps. Only you should use `local-set-key' instead of `define-key'. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
