As me for another example. Gnus has been part of Emacs longer, so if either one has rights, it would be gnus. However, gnus uses it only in gnus buffers, while Calc tries to use it globally. I don't know if there are any conventions for global keybindings like there are for major and minor mode keybindings, or where M-# would fit. Rebinding it in your init file may be convenient, (global-set-key "\C-cm" 'calc-dispatch) or somesuch. Jay
