When one of my old college profs who first evangelized me into the EMACS camp, one of the first things he said was, ``If you get into trouble, just hit CTRL-G a bunch of times.'' More often than not, that has been my saving grace. And when learning the ropes, I tend to recommend XEMACS. And the random key combo issue has turned out to be a mixed blessing. On more than one occasion, I stumbled upon some nifty feature entirely by accident. Mike .___________________________________________________________________.
