Other opinions? > I think changing C-x 4 0 to just kill the window and adding C-x 4 k to kill buffer and window makes sense. But I have a question for C-x 5 k. If you have more than one window showing different buffers in the frame, shall it kill all the buffers, or prompt for the one to kill? I'd assume the latter. The prompt could be skipped if there is just one buffer shown in that frame. Jan D.
