Re: [comp.emacs] Announcing Easymacs: an all-in-one Emacs configuration for newbies

>From my earlier message:

   The local map (usually the major mode map) overrides the
   global map, but not the substitutions to the global map provided by
   the theme minor mode.  This could potentially mess up some major modes.

I guess that once the problem is noticed, it can be corrected using
minor-mode-overriding-map-alist.  There are "emulation modes" which
are a kind of a "keymap theme", like viper-mode.  There also is
emulation-mode-map-alists for them to use.  See `(elisp)Active Keymaps'.

Sincerely,
