Well of course it won't affect the way the current buffer is displayed -- the only way that I know of to do that is to re-visit the file with the `C-x RET c ... C-x C-v RET' command posted earlier. I figured `C-x RET l' would do the right thing for input, but maybe `C-x RET k' is better. -- Kevin Rodgers
