I'm doing a profiling of frequency people using the following
commands.

digit-argument, M-1
negative-argument, M--
count-lines-region, M-=

fill-paragraph, M-q
move-to-window-line, M-r
transpose-words, M-t
tab-to-tab-stop, M-i

M-g prefix, M-g
indent-new-comment-line, M-j
downcase-word, M-l
comment-dwim, M-;
tmm-menubar, M-'

zap-to-char, M-z
back-to-indentation, M-m
tags-loop-continue, M-,
find-tag, M-.
dabbrev-expand, M-/

Answer how frequently you use these commands, by adding a number to
the front of the commands.

5 = hourly
4 = daily
3 = weekly
2 = monthly
1 = yearly
0 = never

Here's is a example of how i use them:

0,digit-argument, M-1
0,negative-argument, M--
0,count-lines-region, M-=

5,fill-paragraph, M-q
0,move-to-window-line, M-r
0,transpose-words, M-t
0,tab-to-tab-stop, M-i

0,M-g prefix, M-g
0,indent-new-comment-line, M-j
3,downcase-word, M-l
4,comment-dwim, M-;
1,tmm-menubar, M-'

0,zap-to-char, M-z
3,back-to-indentation, M-m
0,tags-loop-continue, M-,
0,find-tag, M-.
0,dabbrev-expand, M-/

Thanks.
