So you don't have a cursor that you can move around? In that case, jumping to numbered links makes more sense, but in Emacs, you can just hold down the `down' key a bit to move past masses of links, or whatever. Moving around in en Emacs buffer is usually not really that much work. In Firefox, though, it's pretty awful. If you don't use the mouse there, you have to TAB forever. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
