Now, I've changed that function to produce the same syntax as used for buffer names (or in the buffers menu - don't know which one it is) with the "--" instead of showing the path in parenthesis. I wanted to use uniquify to produce exactly the same behavior (i.e. abbreviated paths where necessary), but it looks like uniquify only works with buffer names and not simply with an arbitrary list of path names :-( Thanks again David
