The keybinding for ESC right remains bound to forward-word even after
loading org.

What am I doing wrong below?  I must be missing something obvious.

;;[emacs is carbon emacs 22 on mac os x tiger, which runs as gui]
;;[org is 6.06b]
;;emacs -q from the default terminal
;;eval the following forms using c-x c-e
(defun alpha-add-path (p) (setq load-path (cons p load-path)))
(alpha-add-path "[valid path]/org/lisp")
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org$" . org-mode))
;;c-x c-f [myorgfile].org
;;result loads and colorizes correctly.  TAB works correctly for the mode.
;;m-x org-version
;;result "Org-mode version 6.06b"
;;c-h c ESC right
;;result "ESC <right> (translated from <escape> <right>) runs the
command forward-word"

This is the header to the org file, in case it matters.

If I evaluate the following sexp in the org-mode buffer, should it
take effect?  It doesn't take effect for either ESC down or alt-down.

(org-defkey org-mode-map [(meta down)]  'org-metadown)

Thanks.

That should work, and it does for me.

OK, does not work for me.  This does, however.  (I got it by M-x
local-set-key RET.  This is a trick I use to figure out what a key
does.)

(local-set-key (quote [27 right]) (quote org-metaright))

By the way, Alt-right merely sends right.

Carbon emacs, mac powerbook, tiger, gui, latest org-mode.  External
keyboard that is known to be good.

Thanks.

I you run Org-mode under X windows, org normally does not use this key  
binding,
since meta-right does the same job.  If you would like to insist using  
it,
you can, using the lates git-released version, by setting org-use- 
extra-keys.

HTH.
