This thread comes in quite timely. I was wondering whether there is a
way to avoid GUI dialogs completely, even when you trigger a
functionality from the menu. Simple example would be 'File'->'Save as'.
Hidden files and directories are much easier accessed from the
minibuffer than from the GUI. So sometimes it's describe-key for the
menu-entry and then M-x the function and that's a bit convoluted from
the user point-of-view.
Thx, /PA
PS: This might be an RTFM, but I hope it gives you more input in your
discussion.
