I've wondered in the past whether it would be feasible to have C-x 4 be bound to a command which reads a key sequence then executes it in another window, so that we needn't define new commands for every command we want to execute in the other window. We could still define key aliases so that C-x 4 f would be find-file-other-window instead of the more cumbersome C-x 4 C-x C-f. This means we can't use 'f' in the other window, but how useful would self-insert-command be anyway? -- -David House, dmhouse@gmail.com
