Um... Ctrl-PageUp doesn't do that in my Emacs. If you mean that the buffer list is reordered, I have no idea...

Therefore you now how many times to do Ctrl-PageUp/Down. Hmm... maybe. I have tabs shown in Opera, and I switch between the pages quite a lot. However, I don't think I've ever looked at the tabs to actually decide how many times to do Ctrl-Left/Right... This could simply be a matter of me having way to many tabs open at once of course. Anyway, I think having tabs could be really good, but I'm not convinced it completely replaces the need for just switching to the previous buffer. /Christian -- Christian Ridderström, +46-8-768 39 44 http://www.md.kth.se/~chr
