Doesn't work with keycast: Wrong type argument: listp, "%-"

[chemtov]

Hi,

Using keycast like this:

(use-package keycast
  :config
  :ensure t)

When enabling keycast using M-x keycast I get:

keycast-mode: Wrong type argument: listp, "%-"

In nano I randomly tried this:

 (provide 'nano-modeline)

But then I got:

funcall-interactively: Wrong type argument: consp, nil
user-error: Cannot turn on keycast-mode.  mode-line-buffer-identification not found in mode-line-format.  Try customizing keycast-insert-after.

The keycast function is defined there https://github.com/tarsius/keycast/blob/master/keycast.el#L41-L52 but I'm not fluent enough in elisp to fix this.

Eventually I tried:

(setq keycast-insert-after "%-")

No error, but no key cast into the modeline neither.

I think it has been fixed by https://github.com/rougier/nano-emacs/pull/31. I did not know the modeline was supposed to be a list.
