Hi Gary, Your best bet is "C-h m". It will list all of the modes that are active in the current buffer and the key bindings that were defined for each mode. However, it will not necessarily tell you which key bindings are "really" active because one mode's keybindings can shadow other bindings. However, if you do a "C-h b", that will tell you what bindings are actually in effect and, once you know what bindings are in effect, you can use "C-h m" to figure out where they were actually defined. -- Bill Clementson On 2/26/07, Gary King <gwking@metabang.com> wrote:

Hi Jonathon (and all other helpful souls),

Thanks!

Is there a way to tell where the setting each emacs is using is coming from?

My apologies since this may be the wrong list... but my emacs foo is very weak...

In GNU Emacs [1] with slime, I can move forwards and backwards an sexp using C M left-arrow and C M right-arrow. In Aquamacs Emacs, these keys are bound to resizing the window. How can I:

* change the key-bindings * determine what to change them to

(if possible, please teach me how to fish so I don't have to bother anyone with silly questions like this in the future...)

My turn to help you ;-)

M-x describe-key

then hit the key combo... you'll get a function name.

Now, in .emacsrc, or for us mac-users, Preferences.el...

(define-key slime-mode-map (kbd "C-M-<left>") 'foo)

where FOO is the name of the function you want to bind to the keystroke.

I'm sure one of the advanced elispers can improve on this, but it's a start, and it works.
