Thanks. (P.S. All (at least the ones > I tried) other combination with Meta key are working > flawlessly) I can only offer general advice because no, I don't have any ideas: 1. Start Emacs with 'emacs -Q'. Does it work? 2. Don't start Emacs with -Q. Instead start it regularly and hit `C-h k' and then hit M-< and M-> to see what the keys are bound to. Is it `beginning-of-buffer' and `end-of-buffer'? And, do `C-h f beginning-of-buffer RET' and `C-h f end-of-buffer RET' and see if M-< and M-> show up. If anything isn't as expected, what mode and/or buffer are you in? Did you configure that particular situation? Or did you load anything unorthodox? By the way, I since long abandoned M-< and M-> for `C-o i' and `C-o j'. Better located and more intuitive for us Lode Runners (`i' is above `j', compared to `<' and `>' which only make sense with respect to the chars, and not what position they have on the keyboard - it is the same position, actually). -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
