Subject: Re: Rename, delete and move current buffer and file
Date: Thu, 10 May 2018 20:59:46 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <092e1313fbb72197bfeceb27b00ed62e@webmail.orcon.net.nz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180510082005.6pfpostuxcuzfutt@isis.luna>

Count me as one of those who find a "rename buffer and file" command
useful.  I've had one of those bound to "C-c r" for a very long time,
and I consider it convenient to be able to do this directly from the
buffer in question, rather than going to dired.

I'd certainly find it annoying if C-x C-w added an extra prompt.
