Re: Emacs 22: bind keymappings with cyrrilics to corresponding latin keymappings?

[Xah Lee]

i'm thinking that at most you just have to do about 26x2=52 lines of
keymap code?

i.e.

(global-set-key (kbd "C-Þ C-Á") 'find-file)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-Ì") 'kill-line)
...

i don't know if there's a easy systematic way... but i'm guessing
manually doing the above is probably easier than hacking up a
systematic way...

as you migt know, C-h k lets you find out the command of a given
shortcut.
C-h f tells you the shortcuts of a given command.

The following might be convenient:
