It's unfortunate > that there is no tag for `...-mode-map'. It's not just ..-mode-map, but also ..-abbrev-table, ..-syntax-table, and ..-mode-hook. That's right. I mentioned just the one that matters most. The others add a little to the point. `find-tag' works for dozens of different languages. Why should it suddenly be uglified with special hacks for one of those languages The code would be a tiny bit more complex, but the behavior would be simpler and more regular. I think that is cleaner than generating extra tags. Also it's better to change Lisp code than change C code. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
