I'd like to, but .... (good opener? ;-) Do you have any idea how they should be like? I understand that CUA makes shifted cursor movement selecting text, right? Then I can't use them for cycling. But I really think that it should be something that you can type very fast so no combination should be used. Who would want to hit C-c > several times to get to the right buffer...? Is it better style to use F-keys for such a thing? I'm already using F11 and F12 and one could use F9 and F10 for the cycling functions (with modifier for cycling groups). Then all the mtorus functionality would live in one F-key block. The problem is that the keyboard has too few keys and emacs too many functions :-) Best Regards Stefan Kamphausen
