Your point is well taken.  "Tools for fools" and all that.  I'm aware of
^X^W and ^X^F, but I guess I was looking for something a little more
mindless.  I have developed some perhaps bad habits.  Often I'll have 
several buffers open, since I code different but interdependent code sections
in different files...some new, some old...and it takes a little extra 
effort, but not an extrordinary one, to rementb
(oops) remember which is which, etc.  Well, thanks for taking the time
to reply.  I'll use ^X^B to check on status and more ^X^W's.  If you 
happen to come up with a more cohesive set of ^X's for future releases 
that's great, but I guess I'd rather not have a bunch of new and obscure
features added for people like me.  GNU emacs is a good piece of software.
Thanx.
