With the following forms in my .emacs, which the *scratch* buffer
evaluates without complaint, (from which I infer that they are at least
syntactically correct)
(defconst *vowels* '(?a ?e ?i ?o ?u ?y)
"A list of the English vowels in lowercase.")
...
(defun vowelp (char)
(memq (downcase char) *vowels*))
(defun goto-vowel
"Skip to next vowel after point."
(interactive)
(while (not (vowelp (char-after))) (forward-char))
)
(define-key global-map [f11] 'goto-vowel)
...
I get this error message:
"call-interactively: Invalid function: (lambda "Skip to next vowel after
point." (interactive) (while (not (vowelp (char-after)))
(forward-char)))"
What am I not understanding here?
Your function is missing an argument list. It should have the empty list after
the command name:
(defun goto-vowel ()
...)
