Re: Remapping the Tab Key?

No luck with that approach either, as I get the following error:

Symbol's value as variable is void: cperl-mode-map

I did, however, finally stumble on something that does:

(add-hook 'cperl-mode-hook
          (function (lambda ()
                      (local-set-key [009] (quote indent-or-complete))
                      )))

Changing from 'cperl-mode-common-hook' to 'cperl-mode-hook' and using
the decimal value of the tab key.  I can think of a few reasons for the
former, but I don't understand the latter.  It *only* works with the
decimal value.  Neither of the following would do the trick:

(local-set-key [tab] (quote indent-or-complete))
(local-set-key [(tab)] (quote indent-or-complete))

Any insights as to why?
