I agree. `,' has "next, please" mnemonics like e.g. in `M-,' (next-tag). > I don't have a better suggestion, though. From this long discussion I got the impression that the best way to satisfy everyone and not to annoy long-time calc users is to leave the old `M-#' calc keybinding unchanged. The fact that it is not available in gnus is not a tragedy. It does nothing disastrous when accidentally typed in the gnus summary buffer (unlike M-g where rescanning the group without the user's consent is not desirable). -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
