Just in case anyone here is interested, I've been collecting color settings from people on the xemacs-beta list. The settings are being provided on a web page along with some views of those colorings in different modes. The thought here is to let people see different setups in action and then be able to try them. I'm hoping this will provide a potential starting place for collections of consistent color settings, as mentioned above. SO, if you have customized your face coloring, fonts, backgrounds, anything in XEmacs and/or Gnus generally, please send me a copy of your .Xdefaults, .emacs-options, etc files. And I'll try to incorporate them once I get my script working again. Also, I'd _really_ like full screen captures of people using XEmacs (and Gnus!), so people can get a feel for things other than Gnus colors. It's interesting to see how other people layout windows, sizes, screen background colors, etc. I'd prefer a URL for gifs, but you can send mime if you have no web server capability. -- David Moore | Computer Systems Lab __o UCSD Dept.
