The menu-open command emulates your clicking on a menu (or typing its accelerator key). The old documents menu is gone, and the new document menu only applies to the current buffer. The list of loaded documents is now at the bottom of the view menu. Thanks, that's what I wanted to know. So it would probably be a good idea to permanently modify the versions of emacs.bind and xemacs.bind that are shipped with LyX 1.4.2 accordingly: i.e, replace the line \bind C-x C-bmenu-open documents by \bind C-x C-bmenu-open view in order to get back that emacs-like feature. Looks like none of the other standard bind files makes use of that particular function... Agreed. I'll put it in bugzilla if it's not already there. /Paul
