Why do > you think we have functions like this? If your question had been more clearly phrased, then it would have been clear that you wanted a trivial helper function rather than reporting of additional information. Having read the entire thread that was not obvious, hence my question. > Why don't you complain that `frame-parameters' > already gives you that information? "What other > information do you need?" There's no need to be rude when replying to a simple query. Feel free to write a patch with the helper routines that you would find helpful. AndyM
