I am using GNU Emacs 18.50.2 on berkely-unix (Ultrix) and want to bind the
function keys to new arguments.  I came up with the following code, bound
it into my .emacs file, and ran it... and nothing happened.  (This is why
I thought my .emacs file wasn't being read - thanks to all of you who replied
to the previous posting.)  Anyway, here is the code.  I would appreciate it
if someone could mail to me either the mistake I'm making, or some code that
would do the right thing.  Thank you.  If anyone else wants to know, I'll
summarize to the net.

(put 'eval-expression 'disabled nil)

(defvar fnkey-map (make-sparse-keymap) "Keymap for function keys")
(define-key esc-map "[" fnkey-map)

(define-key fnkey-map "11~" 'goto-line) ; F1
(define-key fnkey-map "12~" 'compile)   ; F2
(define-key fnkey-map "13~" 'next-error); F3
