The OP probably wants this in the global keymap, rather than in
the org-mode-map: just like the agenda dispatcher C-c a, this
functionality is useful outside an org file.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(global-set-key (kbd "C-M-h") (lambda () (interactive) (org-agenda nil "s" "<")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Also C-M-h runs mark-defun by default and it's not nice to usurp global
keys like that. I would suggest C-c s instead.
Using the global keymap also simplifies the initialization. In order to
put the key definition into the org-mode-map, the map has to be defined
already, i.e the define-key has to be done *after* org is loaded; so you
can't put it in an arbitrary place in .emacs. The safest way is to put
it in a hook (a list of no-argument functions that are executed after
the mode is set on a file):
(setq org-mode-hook
'(
(function (lambda ()
(define-key org-mode-map
(kbd "C-M-h") (lambda ()
(interactive)
(org-agenda nil "s" "<")))))
; maybe followed by more functions in the list
) ; this paren end the list
) ; this paren closes the setq
Putting it in the global map instead bypasses this problem completely
since the global map is defined before .emacs is loaded. That's not to
say that the global map is always the right place to define a key: on
the contrary, most of the time it isn't. But in this case it is the
right place *and* putting the key definition there is simpler.
