Hey,

I have a minor mode that also comes with a global mode. The mode have some key bindings and I want the user to have the posibility to specify what bindings should work for each mode.

(my-minor-mode-bindings-for-mode 'some-mode '(key1 key2 ...))
(my-minor-mode-bindings-for-mode 'some-other-mode '(key3 key4 ...))

So I need some kind of mode/buffer-local key map. Buffer local is a bit problematic since the user can change the major mode.

I have tried some solutions of which neither works any good.

1. Bind all possible keys always and when the user types the key, check if the key should be active in that mode. Execute action if true, otherwise fall back.
2. Like the previous case only that no keys are bound. Instead I use a pre command hook and check if the key pressed should do anything.
3. For each buffer update (whatever that means), run a function that first clears the key map and then updates it with the bindings for that particular mode.

I have tried these approaches and I found problems with all of them. Do you know of any good way to solve this?

Thanks!
