Just enough different to >totally confuse almost anybody. (Also, the emacs version advances dot by >one, and the csh versions doesn't.) Emacs is smarter than that: C-t transposes the characters around point and advances _unless_ it's at the end of a line. In that case, it transposes the two characters before point, and doesn't move. So csh acts like it's at the end of a line, even when it isn't. -=EPS=- Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
