In emacs 21.3 for Windows, a *Help* buffer binds both and to 'help-previous-ref', and works as expected. In emacs 22.0.50.1 (2005-05-24), is not bound, but is bound to 'backward-button'. However, in *Customize Group: Emacs*, IS bound to 'widget-backward'. I suppose it would be easier to add to 'button-buffer-map'. 'help-mode-map' used to include (changed 1998-04-22 Dave Love), probably up until it started inheriting 'button-buffer-map'. -Dave
