define new keys for yas-expand

[Ronald Reynolds]

I have used yasnippet for quite some time and now after an O.S. change and a new yasnippet install   yasnippet  20170418.351 I'm getting a different behavior which I need to fix.  

I use the following elisp expressions to define new keys "R" and "J"  for yas-expand:

 (define-key yas-minor-mode-map (kbd "<tab>") nil)

 (define-key yas-minor-mode-map (kbd "TAB") nil)

 (define-key yas-minor-mode-map (kbd "r") 'yas-expand)

 (define-key yas-minor-mode-map (kbd "j") 'yas-expand)

this has always worked well and I could still type in an R or J  unless it was following a snippet expansion key sequence, in which case it would expand the snippet.  Now after the new install the R and J will only do yas-expand.  I cannot type in R's and J's at other places like before.  Please Help.  I really need it to work that way.

That's a pretty interesting setup. I'd like to hear the answer to this too.

I found out the solution.    in the lines such as (define-key yas-minor-mode-map (kbd "r") 'yas-expand)  I have to write yas-maybe-expand (no quote mark) instead of 'yas-expand
