It would be nice if i could keep my Emacs window in front of Firefox and use some keychord to refresh the page in Firefox without Emacs losing focus and without having to actually switch to the other window. Is there any way to do this kind of thing (on X11)? Firefox provides the -remote command-line option (http://www.mozilla.org/unix/remote.html), which would be perfect except that it doesn't seem to include a way to refresh the current page. Thanks, Bill
