Oh, there's some more. As a recent switcher you might not know that OS X supports basic emacs editing commands in most text fields (specifically all cocoa text fields). You can see the list towards the end here, but it's ⌃F/B, ⌃A/E, ⌃N/P, ⌃D and even ⌃K/Y.

The reason I bring it up is because option D, F, B also work as M-D, M-F and M-B in Emacs. So if you use option as meta in Aquamacs, the basic commands are the same in cocoa text fields, so you might not want to use just option-letter for quicksilver triggers.

There are some excellent write ups for further customization here:

Howard,

Thanks for the pointer. I had come across ~jrus site earlier, and blindly downloaded / installed his .dict file. You bring up a good point about the conflict, may have to switch my option key. Now, if I could only get Lotus Notes to follow the convention, life will be easy, have to use Notes for mail at work.

I apologize to the rest of the list for digressing so far off the topic.
