To start with, when GNU emacs starts which initialization files are called and what are they? I am interested in initialization for a SUN terminal, VT100 terminal and VT220 terminal. I have customized the sun.el init file using define-key to map functions to keys and this works fine. But when I tried to customize the vt200.el file(which is used by vt220), I am having trouble defining a mapping of the function keys. In particular, I am using a PC 101 key keyboard that puts out the sequence for F5 of [1~ that I have not been able to map using, (define-key esc-map "[1~ 'enlarge-window) ; F5 If I want to use the edt.el file what do I have to do to load it? Do I put a load-file statement in my .emacs file? If I what this done for everyone in our groupwould I put load-file(or something else) in another file? As you can tell, I am having much difficulty customizing GNU emacs for my configuration. I am familiar with Unipress Emacs, but I don't seem to have the documentation to allow me customize GNU emacs. I have the GNU Emacs Manual, but this only very briefly talks about how to customize GNU. Is there anything that I can buy that talks about customizing GNU in detail? Thanks Keith. P.S.
