Thank you, but raising the constant on an O(n) task does not help. Aquamacs mercifully changes apple-w from uselessly closing the Emacs window (never what an Emacs user wants) to kill-this-buffer. I can just smash that chord rather than repeating the hand cramping "ctrl-x k". -- Don't try the paranormal until you know what's normal. -- "Lords and Ladies" by Terry Prachett
