Indeed. Morever, it gives important information about the way the command works (which something like "new window" would _not_ do, and might actually be more confusing for that reason). Remember, the goal is not to be perfectly consistent with other apps, merely to provide a reasonable compromise that will help users of other apps adapt quickly and painlessly to emacs, and hopefully lead to them becoming skillful users of Emacs. -Miles -- Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
