I like the idea, I think. But just thinking out loud without having read the code closely -- would it perhaps be even more useful to have the transient method in place until you `C-x \' again? Then you could `C-x \ ... type a couple of words in that method C-x \' I'm not at all sure, but I think that perhaps people would more often type in a couple of words than just a single key sequence? -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
