Well, yes, of course. But I'd like to know how many times you've used IELM against such kind of buffer... Perhaps my experience is more limited, but I use IELM quite a lot, and to me its usage pattern is mainly twofold: as a quick way to test some elisp code (where it is more responsive/practical that a lot of M-: or M-x eval-expression), and as an aid in developing elisp modules (and then usually the .el buffer or a few temporary test buffers are the target). Anyway, I just proposed that because I find it useful. If I'm the only one, I can always do (add-hook 'ielm-mode-hook '(lambda () (setq mode-line-process '(":" (:eval (buffer-name ielm-working-buffer)))))) on my .emacs :) /L/e/k/t/u _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
