It is like context-aware multi-file editing or what it should be called. They use it to edit css or javascript while editing html file, The easier way to do this in Emacs would be to do it at the C level. It would be fairly straightforward that way. But why is it useful to put multiple files in one buffer? Can you describe a use case more precisely? -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
