Custom, I suppose? I've been using Emacs since 1996, and I certainly |
| 41 |
don't have C-M-e nor C-M-t defined. |

I usually launch from the activities view. It's fast enough to do |
| 53 |
Super -> e -> m (and Emacs jump to the first selected item). I believe |
| 54 |
if you have a program in your favorites, it jumps faster (I just now |
| 55 |
realized that Super -> e brings me Emacs right away). |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Anyway, with some luck the bug will be closes soon enough. |
