I suggest that you also support standard MacOS behavior whenever it doesn't conflict with normal Emacs behavior. So if Command isn't being used as Meta, you should support the standard shortcuts: Cmd-Q for save-buffers-kill-emacs, Cmd-X/C/V for kill-region/kill-ring-save/yank, Cmd-O/S for find-file/save-buffer, etc. -- Barry Margolin, barry.margolin@level3.com Genuity Managed Services, a Level(3) Company, Woburn, MA *** DON'T SEND TECHNICAL QUESTIONS DIRECTLY TO ME, post them to newsgroups.
