Re: emacs memu bars in linux console
Yes but that's not my point. 'F10' and 'M-`' exist and I use them :-)
To use emacs menu in console, this top menu line is really useless. F10
works even after I killed this top menu line with "meta-x
menu-bar-mode". I always wonder why do not they simply say "Press F10
for menu" or something reasonable and useful ???.
Rereading info page, it looks like the way RMS wants. I can not argue
with him.
For me console screen is tight, so kill this useless line with "meta-x
menu-bar-mode" and use 'F10' anyway. Nobody gave me convincing story
not to do this :-).
