Hi Stefan,

I noticed that on my MacBook Pro ^C = does not work in none of the 3x
versions (the message in the mini buffer is "^C = is undefined") , while
there is no problem on the iMac. On both computers the generation of the TOC
buffer  works fine with the latest 2.3 and earlier 2x versions. Do you think
the reason is similar to what  you describe in your last email? BTW, the
combinations Shift and any of the arrow keys have been working always for
me...

thanks, and have a nice day.

Iliya
