New issue 131 by m00nati...@gmail.com: Can't customize key bindings
http://code.google.com/p/ergoemacs/issues/detail?id=131

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Before or after enabling ergoemacs-mode I try each of:

(ergoemacs-replace-key 'search-forward-regexp "C-e")
(ergoemacs-minor-key "C-e" 'search-forward-regexp)
(ergoemacs-key "C-e" 'search-forward-regexp)
(ergoemacs-fixed-key "C-e" 'search-forward-regexp)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I'd like to map C-e (in the ideal case, the key will float for all
layouts) to do regular expression search. None of the above has
desired (any) effect. As I'm using colemak, here are the results:

C-f (corresponding to C-e on qwerty, this is what I really want) -> invokes
isearch

C-e -> 【Ctrl+e】 keybinding is disabled! Use 【Alt+⇧Shift+h】, <end>
(move-end-of-line)

I'd also like to re-enable M-< and M-> to go to beginning/end of
buffer and disable M-(arrow keys) so I can use paredit bindings. I
can't achieve any of the above.

Are you using ErgoEmacs windows binary, or the ErgoEmacs elisp package, or
just the ErgoEmacs keybinding elisp package?
MELPA elisp package

What version of the the above are you using?
5.7.5 (20130516.515 from MELPA)

What OS (Windows, Mac, Linux)?
GNU/Linux

Is this bug related to running emacs inside a text terminal?
No

I'm not sure what is happening right now.

However, you should be able to achieve that using:

(global-set-key ...)

after ergoemacs-mode loads.

I made some changes to ergoemacs that may have fixed this bug... It passes
the test for ergoemacs-key, but I haven't created any other tests yet.

Thanks! Things seem to work now as expected with (ergoemacs-key ...).

A little addition, is there a way to unbind/ignore some of the default
ergo keys, like associated with ergoemacs-backward-open-bracket or
ergoemacs-forward-block? I unsuccessfully tried with:

(ergoemacs-set-default 'ergoemacs-forward-block nil)

Of course. For colemak:

(require 'ergoemacs-mode)
(global-set-key (kbd "M-n") nil)

ergoemacs-set-default doesn't work. It is used to allow you to customize
your keys with the customize interface. In other words, use M-a
customize-group ergoemacs-mode. With that you can add/delete keys, save
the changes and have those changes instantly available.

I also made ergoemacs-replace-key work in a similar manner:

(ergoemacs-replace-key 'ergoemacs-forward-block nil)

It turns out

(ergoemacs-fixed-key "<M-up>" nil)

is what I was looking for and it works as intended. Thank you for
your effort and help, I think this ticket is done :-)
