More questions about vt200 terminals :-}

Does anyone out there know how to redefine the vt200 'Find' key to give
you C-s so that you can use it properly with isearch.  The 'Find' key sends the
key sequence "\e[1~".

Isearch uses (read-char) to see if you have pressed C-s, can you somehow get
the find \e[1~ sequence translated into C-s *before* it reaches (read-char) ??

I have tried everything I could think of to try and get it to work, in
particular the following *didn't* work ( though I don't know why ):

(define-key global-map "\e[1~" "\C-s")

which should give you C-s if you press find ( it works for C-c though ??? ).

I could ( try! ) and hack around with isearch.el to get it to recognize the
sequence \e[1~, but I don't really want to.

Also, does anyone know where I could get a simple description of how elisp
works.  I've written a few functions for my .emacs file, but I don't really
have any idea of how elisp works on a basic level ( like what the hell lists,
vectors, etc really are and how you use them ).
It's pretty easy to write simple functions just using the online help about
what particular functions do, but anything vaguely compilcated requires at
least a basic understanding of how lisp works.
