No I dont really. I dont really understand why C-RET doesnt work either. I use a terminal emulator called Putty sometimes, and an xterm sometimes. They differ in which keys are acceptable. For instance I use shift-arrows for moving between windows using (windmove-default-keybindings). I need to patch Putty to make shift-arrows work, but it works directly with xterm. If I could find out which keys are acceptable in terminals maybe I could contribute better. > -- > Kim F. Storm http://www.cua.dk -- Joakim Verona
