Agreed. Please don't! Maybe I'm one of the few who _does_ use M-g d regularly (and occasionally M-g M-g). I keep a log of my hacking activities (tends to be in fundamental-mode most of the time ;-), and I frequently copy text from an Elisp buffer to my log. Irritatingly, the font-locking gets copied along with it, so I'm grateful for M-g d. However, I too think that goto-line should have a binding, and M-g is a good binding for it. How about moving `facemenu-keymap' to C-M-g? C-M-g is currently unused, I think. > Stefan -- Alan Mackenzie (Munich, Germany) acm@muc.de
