You can know what keys a command is bound to with C-h w C-h w ido-switch-buffer RET (here it says it's not bound to any key). However, when I do C-h w find-file RET it says: find-file is on , C-x C-f, Notice the comas! There's three ways to find-file thru "keys". 1- keying the key, 2- keying C-x C-f, 3- selecting the , selecting the item, and selecting the item. I'd guess that the key is what happens when you click on the open button in the tool-bar. -- __Pascal Bourguignon__
