Yes, I tried to emulate `man' that doesn't support the -k switch (using a non-existent switch), and it fails gracefully by not providing completions, i.e. the same behavior as was in Emacs 23.1. Anyone on platforms where `man' doesn't support the -k switch, could use woman.el anyway. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ ------------=_1259511308-18738-0--
