Sorry, ctrl-l-map is just a keyboard mapping for ctrl-l. I use it
instead of ctrl-c as a prefix key (easier on the fingers)..
(global-unset-key "\C-l")
(defvar ctl-l-map (make-keymap)
"Keymap for local bindings and functions, prefixed by (^L)")
(define-key global-map "\C-l" 'Control-L-prefix)
(fset 'Control-L-prefix ctl-l-map)
But, you could just bind cmd-send-region to anything, just like you
bound C-c C-y
(define-key global-map "\C-c\C-y" 'comint-previous-input)
For example, if you wanted to bind it to C-c p to run the paragraph
(define-key global-map (kbd "C-c p") '(lambda () (interactive) (save-excursion
(mark-paragraph) (cmd-send-region (region-beginning) (region-end)))))
Typically you would use a (defun) instead of passing in a lambda
To start j, you could have a function like this in your .emacs
(defun jcmd()
(interactive)
(make-comint-in-buffer "cmd" nil
"C:/Users/jbogner/Downloads/j64-801/bin/jconsole.exe" nil)
(switch-to-buffer "*cmd*"))
and then do M-x jcmd
And then the C-c p should send the paragraph from another buffer to
it. I typically have emacs in a split window configuration - with my J
file on top and the interpreter buffer on the bottom.
I am happy to keep discussing it
