It's better to use a slightly less common word than not make sense. "Familiar in this context" is not some sort of trump card, merely one thing to consider. The Emacs command is indeterminate (as to whether the file exists or not), so the menu name should be as well. I like "Visit File" best myself; another possibility is to use explicitly indeterminate wording, like "New/Open File". -Miles -- The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources. --Albert Einstein _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
