Hydra [1] is a really nice package for creating keymaps that are similar to keymaps under a prefix key. Hydra has lots of little features, but two main advantages of using a hydra over a standard prefix key are that commands are repeatable with a single key and that a menu displays the key/command information. Have a look at hydra-examples.el [2] for some use cases. [1] https://github.com/abo-abo/hydra [2] https://github.com/abo-abo/hydra/blob/master/hydra-examples.el -- Kyle
