Actually this is one of those functions I've wished for a long time was in the emacs core. Any reason why not? It's a very simple function, has no `issues' that I can see, and quite useful... Since as you say it's _already_ being defined under a different name in backquote, it might even same some space. -Miles -- Ich bin ein Virus. Mach' mit und kopiere mich in Deine .signature.
