I'm not sure this is a good idea. What about people who do the following? (global-unset-key (kbd "<f5>")) (define-key function-key-map (kbd "<f5>") (kbd "DEL")) (global-set-key (kbd "<backspace>") 'forward-char) Not that it makes any sense, but I guess you get the idea. Lars has said before that Gnus gives you all the possibility you could possibly want to shoot yourself in the foot, and why should Emacs be any worse? :-) kai -- Simplification good!
