Of course Juri is being facetious. The binding of M-g was a small change as compared to the improvements. If he'd have come up with them before, maybe the argument would not have taken so long: the improvements are what makes this really good. > Now that Richard has changed M-g to be a prefix key, can we > implement this plan? > > We already have: > > M-g M-g - goto-line > M-g g - goto-line > > The candidates are: > > M-g c - goto-char Maybe the binding M-g = would be a better complement to C-x = (what-cursor-position)? M-g b - goto-byte (non-existent yet) If one application is supposed to make use of error offsets from external applications, it is quite likely that those will be given in bytes instead of characters for this kind of granularity. goto-byte would need to take a look at buffer-file-coding-system in general, as it would not do to do the accounting in Emacs-internal units. > M-g n - next-error (goto-next-locus) > M-g M-n - next-error (goto-next-locus) > M-g p - previous-error > M-g M-p - previous-error Most definitely YES! > Undecided: > > M-g f - dired-goto-file?
