Unfortunately TCINST won't map a keystroke to perform multiple actions, as Gary asked for ("cursor down, controlK,K"). You _can_ redefine the keystrokes that invoke the built in TC editor commands, but you are stuck with those commands. There are a few keyboard macro programs available, but I'm no help, because I don't know where to find them :-( . -- Paul M.

[I flamed a request for means to bind TC editor functions to new keys...]

Oops, my fault, I skimmed the original request a bit too quickly I guess.
For multiple-action things, I use a (shareware? commercial now?) program
called Newkey --- versions can be found on BBS's and possibly simtel20.
Also, Borland's Superkey should work.
