Very nice indeed. You say: The whole reason I like this mode is that it gives me the chance to expand and collapse sections while in emacs -- just go to any section/subsection and hit TAB to either expand or collapse it. That's the way I write manuals -- work in one place, finish up there, close it, move elsewhere, open it up, etc. I think that pretty soon, you will find a whole lot more reasons to like it ;-) Nick
