IIRC the same suggestion to make it generic came up right around the Emacs-23 freeze, which is why it didn't happen. If someone wants to make this generic *right now* he'd better hurry. Otherwise it'll have to wait for Emacs-24 (or Emacs-23.3 maybe). > Also, it would be nice to have it as a global minor mode, too. > Any objections? If not, I'd volunteer to do that. IIRC there was a general agreement that it would be a desirable feature. Stefan
