I use them as indicators of "this group of functions belongs together", but I don't actually use the page navigation functions in Emacs. Also there's a historical / habitual component to adding them; it's long been part of the GNU style. Maybe having more and smaller files would be a better approach to what I use them for. Though of course that's not without its costs. Tom
