This is what I used for many years. I use the prefix key `C-z' for my
additional keymap. On qwerty-keyboards `C-z' is one of the most
accessible keys like `C-x' and `C-c', but the prefix key `C-c' is
reserved for mode-specific commands (both user-defined and standard
Emacs extensions). I reassigned the previous binding of `C-z'
(`suspend-emacs' or `iconify-or-deiconify-frame') to double key
sequence `C-z C-z'.
Here is what I have in .emacs:
(defvar my-map nil)
(if (not my-map)
(let ((c-z (global-key-binding "\C-z")))
(global-unset-key "\C-z")
(setq my-map (make-sparse-keymap))
(define-key global-map "\C-z" my-map)
(define-key my-map "\C-z" c-z)))
(define-key my-map "t" ...)
...
BTW, I once had one problem with this code. Before I added `if' condition,
this code was called twice on the Emacs startup and created the cyclic
keymap. The double loading was caused by the bug in the function
`command-line' in lisp/startup.el:
(when (stringp custom-file)
(unless (assoc custom-file load-history)
;; If the .emacs file has set `custom-file' but hasn't
;; loaded the file yet, let's load it.
(load custom-file t t)))
If .emacs contains the following code:
(setq custom-file "/home/full/path/dotemacs.el")
(add-to-list 'load-path "/home/full/path/)
(load "dotemacs")
then the above condition in the startup.el fails, because the variable
`custom-file' has the absolute file name, whereas `load-history'
has the file name without directory, i.e.
(assoc "/home/full/path/dotemacs.el" (("dotemacs.el" ...) ...))
I think that either this code should be fixed, or the documentation
of the variable `custom-file' should be improved to warn about this
problem.
