Anyway, that would make `M-w' not be totally analogous to `C-w', so then `C-w' should be changed, too, perhaps. But I think having the rectangle commands live in their own keymap is kinda nice. When you're in a rectangular kinda mood, you use them a lot, and it's nice to have them separate from the normal kill/yank commands. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no * Sent from my Rome
