I've left this turned on, and will probably leave it on; hitting RET twice is so easy that it's not really a big deal, and it's already saved me from creating at least one buffer inadvertently. It seems that this is a pretty good way of implementing this particular feature (a y-n question, for instance would be far more annoying and intrusive). -Miles -- Mad, adj. Affected with a high degree of intellectual independence; not conforming to standards of thought, speech, and action derived by the conformants [sic] from study of themselves; at odds with the majority; in short, unusual. It is noteworthy that persons are pronounced mad by officials destitute of evidence that they themselves are sane.
