You'll have > to find yourself another sparring partner for this one, sorry] Feel free to be more direct. If I don't see what you see and that is exactly what I wish to know, then tell me. If you remain mysterious even while it is clear that I don't see what you are pointing out, how do you expect me to see it without explanation? I had problems constructing a macro, then I got information it is special form, it will not work, etc. So it works now with `eval'. The bottom question is if some other solution exists or not to dynamically create completing-read and read-from-minibuffer history variables. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
