While it's pointless to change the usage throughout Emacs, being consistent within the menu bar code and manual itself is probably a good idea. I see the following in the Menu Bar chapter in the manual: On text-only terminals with no mouse, you can use the menu bar by typing `M-`' or (these run the command `tmm-menubar'). This ^^^^^^^ And this in a comment in menu-bar.el: (defun kill-this-buffer () ; for the menubar ^^^^^^^ I fixed the latter. -- Bill Wohler http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and MH-E.
