In GNU Emacs 18.55.6 of Mon Jun 25 1990 on icule (usg-unix-v) Hi people. I find it too easy to enable a command forever, by mistake. Here how it goes. I request a disabled command which I intend to use a few times for this Emacs session. Emacs opens the warning window, then prompts me: Type y, n or Space: I answer `y RET' to the prompt. Then, Emacs asks: Enable command for future editing session also? (y or n) Another `y RET' is sufficient to make the command permanent. I would like that Emacs rather force me to spell `yes' in three letters. It would go with the spirit of a few other commands which requires an explicit `yes' or `no'. -- Franc,ois Pinard ``Vivement GNU!'' pinard@iro.umontreal.ca (514) 588-4656 cp 886 L'Epiphanie (Qc) J0K 1J0 ...!uunet!iros1!pinard
