- There is also the termsetuphook, which can be used in your .emacs file
- to do terminal specific initialization, but only AFTER the .../term/*.el
- initialization is done.
-
- For example, you can do this in your .emacs file to get arrow keys on a
- vt100:
-
- (defun vt100initialization ()
- (enablearrowkeys))
-
- (setq termsetuphook 'vt100initialization)
-
- Hope this helps...
