Though this is not exactly what you are asking about, I thought I'd post
it up anyway.  I inherited the following set-up from a friend who was a
great programmer debilitated by a stroke/heart-attack which greatly
limited his motion.

Essentially it make ] act like another ESC key.  Since ]-anything is
not, by default, defined, you can make it anything you like and not
worry about nuking any emacs default key sequences.

First I set up the defaults sequences, then I apply the mode specific
definitions.  For example, my macs-lisp-mode-hook looks like:

    (setq emacs-lisp-mode-hook
          (function
            (lambda nil
              (load                   "my-modekeys"  nil t)
              (define-emacs-lisp-mode-keys)
              (setq comment-start     ";")
              (setq set-fill-prefix   "; ")
              (setq default-directory "~ccmproc2/emacs/")
             )
           )
    )

The first line after the "(lambda nil" line loads it, then the
next line applies the emacs-lisp specific definitions.
