Though technically it's a alpha nerd joke with an emacs punchline.

And it gets the keybinding wrong so it falls into the ignorance category. But at least we got M-x butterfly thanks to it.

Can you get a keybinding wrong for a command that doesn't exist?

[owl57]

It seems more nuanced. What does it mean that the command doesn't exist? Every serious Emacs user has their own personal bindings, some of those for their own custom commands. But "M-butterfly" suggests more rare hackery, though seemingly trivial for the hypothetical butterfly hacker: they have a "butterfly" key in their keyboard layout.

What made you think it does not exist?

[benj111]

Fair enough. What is the keybinding then?

[imaltont]

M-x butterfly C-M-c(or RET), made in reference to the xkcd. Been in there since version 23.

[benj111]

Surely if it was made in reference to the comic, Emacs got the keybinding wrong?
