It is really contorted. It preserves some continuity with the old keybinding, which is nice. But since I'm not the only person who thinks it's a bit awkward, something else might be in order. My best thought right now is `C-xC-,'. Nothing particularly mnemonic about it, but it seems off the beaten track enough that it might be acceptable, and since `,' doesn't require a shift on any keyboards that I've seen, this key sequence only requires the control key. Unless there are problems with this or somebody has a better idea, I'll suggest it. Jay
