Hi Peter,

Looks like the Buffers menu will only show the 10 latest viewed
buffers by default.

Yes, that's what I want, but I want the 10 most recent files that I have currently open, not a bunch of prompts for commands I don't use.

The number "10" here can be configured to fit your
need I think, but I don't know how :-(  And I don't see the need to
show all opening buffers in the menu (I'm opening 600+ buffers now,
what a mess!).

No, I don't want all, just the last 10 or so, as always was.
I can't understand why they've changed this.

Just in case you don't know it: I suggest you use the ibuffer (http://
www.emacswiki.org/emacs/IbufferMode) to navigate your buffers, it
would be more efficient than click the mouse :-)

Interesting but needs a lot more work. I found a fragment of code to put the cursor on the last-visited file, but the Ibuffer doesn't update itself when I open a new file. I have to visit it and hit g.
