Thomas) Just a few random remarks on your comments about Unipress emacs. I think the first release is basically just as they got it from Gosling. Hopefully, they will clean it up a bit in the future. It was announced on Unix.Emacs that the name of the error-occurred function was changing (at least I think it was, maybe that was private communication with jag), in any case, it is pretty simple to write a shell+sed script to fix all your .ml files at once. Nobody uses the file name completion (that I noticed), all you get is the get-tty-file function, it's up to you to use it. (Or were there some top-level functions in the mlisp?) That problem with 200 character buffers has been in there just FOREVER - for longer than we've had emacs, anyway. One of these days I may get the energy... Re: your key binding idea. What about a function which is bound to more than one key? Which key do you pick? BTW, I've got some significant bug fixes for #264, including a couple nasty ones in the compiler. If you ever want to bind ESC-^@, you need these. =Spencer
