  i need some fresh ideas.  i would love to hear yours.

  i have emacs 18.57 compiled on an hp (a 720 running hpux A.B8.05), a
  dec (risc running ultrix 4.2) and an ibm (520 running aix 3.2).  it
  creates its own X display.

  if emacs runs on my aix machine (and as i recall, back when i had a
  sun), C-- maps to C-_ and hence (undo).  this is great!

  however, when emacs runs on the dec and hp, C-- maps to RET.  this
  isn't as convenient.

  any ideas how i can get the C-- to generate C-_ instead of RET?

  i'll buy a northern german pils for every C-_ i type (instead of the
  preferred C--) and the people who give me leads on this may have
  them (the pils, not the C-_). ;-)
