I'm trying to use a prefix in a command.
I want to type "ESC <some number>" before
invoking say C-a and have C-a know what
<some number> is..
If I type "ESC x print-prefix" then
it says the argument is 1 but I cannot
type C-a after "ESC 5" and get a 5.
Please help.
Here is my command I wrote to test:
;(global-set-key "\C-a" 'print-prefix)
(defun print-prefix(&optional arg)
(interactive "P")
(message "Argument is %d." (prefix-numeric-value arg))
)
