+1 However, I have a dual Emacs/vi background anyway (used to use Emacs for "large" things and vi for "small" things), so I could well imagine that die-hard vi users would prefer vi-keys-in-minibuffer. I presume this discussion is about what should be the default behavior, not whether vi-keys-in-minibuffer should be dropped completely. Cheers, Christoph -- Christoph Lange, Jacobs Univ.
