If you type C-h c <char> you normally see self-insert-command. I'll bet those characters map to something else for some reason. If you don't regularly use prefix args that way yourself it's easy to forget to add support for them when writing a function. It's something you must explicitly code for. It's likely the function(s) currently being called for those keys don't have such support. _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
