Subject: bug#355: M-x should prompt with function under cursor as default
Date: Sat, 07 Jun 2008 02:37:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87lk1ipfyu.fsf__40913.6248672896$1212778143$gmane$org@jidanni.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: jwvbq2eton6.fsf-monnier+emacsbugreports@gnu.org

One puts the cursor on the name of a function, learns about it with
C-h f, and if what one reads sounds good, gives it a roll (a trial)
with M-x,  Except no... this (M-x) time we have to type its name in
even though we are sitting on top of it, because...

SM> And how often is that?

OK, only half the functions I read about sound good enough to use M-x on.
