The current Emacs binding for `C--' (negatie-argument) seems pretty redundant, as there are many other ways of getting the same thing (`M--', `C-u -', both of which I suspect are more commonly used). Since a "reduce font size" binding of `C--' is rather common in other GUI programs (gtk/gnome, mozilla), I'd say it easily trumps the current Emacs binding. -Miles -- We are all lying in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. -Oscar Wilde
