How to do a Ctl-Grave key binding?

[ze...@hotmail.com]

Hi, I want to do a Ctl-Grave key binding. Just to be clear, grave, AKA backtick, is the key below ~ (tilde) on most PC keyboards.

Hi, I've tried several variations of the last line from my .EMACS startup below but cannot get it to compile. (I think once I did have a syntax that would compile but then if I actually tried to use the sequence it would not respond.)

Does anyone know a sequence that will work?

I am using GNU EMACS 23.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601).

(global-set-key [C-tab] 'my-own-specialized-indent)
(global-set-key [C-`] 'my-own-specialized-outdent)

I could evaluate this form:

(global-set-key [(control \`)] (lambda () (interactive) (insert "hello" )))

so I think you could substitute your function for the lambda.

Aka backquote.

(global-set-key (kbd "C-`") 'my-own-specialized-outdent)
