;; Suggested key assignments (uncomment to use).  I find these the

;; standard key assignments.
;;
;; Apropos, these seem to need to be placed at the end
;; of the ~/.emacs files, so they don't get munged
;; by any alternative global-set-key assignments.  In particular
;; they need to go AFTER the customer-set-variables stuff
;; because pc-select overwrites our use of the Alt-cursor keys
