A C-a gets the left edge of the text nicely fixed to the left edge of the monitor, but no consideration is given to us right-wingers. _______________________________________________ Bug-gnu-emacs mailing list Bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnu-emacs ------- End of forwarded message -------
