So I would be in Buffer 1 -> C-x C-b "bufer menu" -> buffer 2 I have the short cut: (global-set-key "\M-a" 'switch-to-previous-buffer) So I could switch back to the previous buffer. How is possible to skip the buffer menu when doing so. Basically, Buffer 1 -> C-x C-b "bufer menu" -> buffer 2 -> M-a -> buffer 1 "without going back to buffer menu"
