The default binding for M-r (move-to-window-line) is also quite helpful, I'm using it not too infrequently to speed searches and cursor movements in that I'm pre-position the cursor as near to the goal as possible (window beginning M-0 M-r, window end M-- M-r). I'm even thinking it makes sense for the pinpointing purpose to have something like a middle-of-line-cursor-positioning key-binding. -- Best wishes H. Dieter Wilhelm Darmstadt, Germany
