From: David Kastrup <dak <at> gnu.org> To: 6861 <at> debbugs.gnu.org Subject: bug#6861: 24.0.50; Scroll lock not bound Date: Sun, 15 Aug 2010 11:13:03 +0200
I tried using the Scroll Lock Key, and got an error telling me it is unbound. I figured out there was a library scroll-lock and loaded it. The Scroll Lock Key still was unbound, though calling scroll-lock-mode did what I would have expected to be on the scroll lock key. I suggest putting an appropriate autoloaded default global key definition on the Scroll Lock Key, since nothing is gained by not binding it to something useful. If a user happens to have his own different definition, this will override the default anyway.
