Just type ^R and it will become a real buffer; exit the recursive edit to go
back to ``more mode.''  This shows how flexible emacs is-- these Twenex
style typeout windows were implemented using the normal windowing system in
emacs.  I like them much better than the normal type of pop-up help window,
as most of the things for which they are used really *are* transient, and I
don't want the information staying on my screen.

In my opinion, Unipress has done a pretty good job of fixing bugs and making
GosMacs more consistent and usable.  The only thing I don't like is what
they've done to the mail packages (and my complaints are simply cosmetic).
