See below -- your fun should take a single function argument.

It works according to the documentation in the hooks.txt file:

_jed_before_key_hooks
---------------------

  These hooks are called just prior to the execution of the function
  bound to a key.  Hooks of this type are passed a single value
  representing the function to be executed, and return no value.  The
  value representing the key function may be either a string giving
  the name of the function or as a reference via a Ref_Type object.

      define before_key_hook (fun) {...}

_jed_after_key_hooks
---------------------

  Hooks of this type are called after the function associated with a
  key has been executed.  They are passed no value and should return
  no value.

I hope this helps.
Thanks,
--John
