(I originally posted a similar article to just gnu.emacs, but having only
received "me too, please summarize" responses, thought I would re-post to
more groups.)

We're just starting the Big Shift from Sunview to X11/OpenWindows.

1) How can I bind the Sun function keys to, for instance, scroll up, down,
   etc., as I did with emacstool?
2) Is there a scrollbar in the X11 version?
3) Has anybody used Sun's Guide to design nifty menus for Emacs?
4) For those who have pioneered this move already, what things should I
   watch out for?

And I have plenty other questions, plus more will occur right after I post
this.  So:  If you've gone through this, post or email your experiences,
I'll summarize.  There are a number of people who would appreciate your
help.  Followups should go to gnu.emacs.

Thanks!
