The mark ring is local to each buffer, so marks in the > folder buffer are not visible in the edit buffer. True, but you could be sneakier about it. It wouldn't be too hard to make the edit buffer start out with the same point, window-start, and mark-ring as the message buffer. This would be a win. Also, when you edit a message, the edit buffer should appear in whatever window the message buffer is visible in; if I type "e" from the summary window, it's ugly that the summary is replaced, leaving with two copies of the message (and the one I'm editing in a smaller window.) -- Jamie "but I'd still rather you added some hooks first" Zawinski
