Isn't emacs currently stalled, anyway, as he demands that they fix /every/ bug in it? It's a very worthy goal, but the way it sounds, he's doing it in a way that will make the next emacs release years in the future. .... This is the same emacs that lost the leading '1' from it's version number since it would never see the version '2' light of day... ;-) --=20 If work and leisure are soon to be subordinated to this one utopian principle -- absolute busyness -- then utopia and melancholy will come to coincide: an age without conflict will dawn, perpetually busy -- and without consciousness. -- G=FCnter Grass
