I would like to have a shortcut for \ldots.
My preferred would be three dots, that is

\bind "period period period" "math-insert \\ldots"

but it doesn't work: what am I missing?

You now that \ldots (in text mode, though) is bound to Alt-period by default?


Yes, I know, but I hardly use it in text mode, if ever, whereas I use it quite often in math mode: so I have unbound it and I made the shortcuts

\bind "M-comma M-comma M-comma" "math-insert ,\\ldots,"
\bind "M-period M-period M-period" "math-insert \\cdots"

They make my workflow faster, but I can't guess why they don't work without the Alt modifier.
