You are typing "ESC ," and "ESC ." not, "ESC <" and "ESC >". I think you are forgetting to hit the shift key. Try invoking the commands beginning-of-file and end-of-file by hand (using ESC X) and you will see that they work. "ESC ," is bound to beginning-of-window and "ESC ." is bound to "end-of-window" sortof the analogy of "ESC <" and "ESC >". Jonathan Payne (jpayne@sun.com)
