Hello,
I have a following keybinding, parts of which do not work. In
particular I am trying to bind view-previous-entry to the page-up key
on the standard PC keyboard (using Emacs 22.1). I used both h-k and h-
l to determine that this key is identified with "<prior>" & <next>".
(defvar iop-alert-mode-map nil
"Keymap for IOP-alert mode")
(unless iop-alert-mode-map
(setq iop-alert-mode-map (copy-keymap text-mode-map))
(define-key iop-alert-mode-map (kbd "<prior>") 'view-previous-entry)
(define-key iop-alert-mode-map (kbd "<next>") 'view-next-entry)
(define-key iop-alert-mode-map (kbd "d") 'mark-entry-for-deletion)
(define-key iop-alert-mode-map "m" 'mark-entry-for-save))
When in a buffer with iop-alert mode, doing h-m gives me the following
output on keybindings:
... stuff skipped
< n e Prefix Command
< p r Prefix Command
< n e x Prefix Command
< p r i Prefix Command
< n e x t Prefix Command
< p r i o Prefix Command
< n e x t > view-next-entry
< p r i o r Prefix Command
< p r i o r > view-previous-entry
It seems <prior> and <next> are bound to the character sequence
"<prior>" and "<next>". Pressing those characters will invoke the
commands. But pressing the Page-up/down keys will not.
Indeed, doing a h-k shows that page-up/down are still bound to scroll
up/down.
What am I doing wrong?
emacs-version --> "22.2.1"
(kbd "<prior>") --> [prior]
if you don't get this vector with one symbol for (kbd "<prior>"),
indeed you have a problem.

I tried that, and I get exactly as you suggested.
(kbd "<prior>") --> [prior]
