I see. Then I think Richard's suggestion makes a lot of sense. Except that
it means comment-forward (and hence newcomment.el) should not be autoloaded
but preloaded. I'm all in favor of such a change (after all, the
functionality provided by newcomment.el used to be preloaded (it was in
simple.el) before I rewrote it).
Richard, do you have an objection to preloading newcomment.el (after
changing forward-comment to comment-forward-internal, adding backward
motion to comment-forward and making forward-comment an alias of
comment-forward).
Stefan
