Thanks.. I even bookmarked your site.. But sometimes you don't know where to 
find something, if you need it. I use emacs now for 2 years, and still I do some 
things manually, where I think there is an emacs-command. But I am just a 
student, and maybe looking up a particular command is at first not so fast, as 
doing a specific task manually - and my fellow students may have changed their 
codes faster than me, because I still fiddle out what keys next to press... But 
I think there is a long-term benifit from trying to avoid the mouse while inside 
emacs.


Greets,
Christian
