I have 2 questions for neters concerning uw and emacs:

	1. What exactly is uw ? Is it a window manager ? Is it compatible with X window
	   system version 11 ? If it is, can it run over dial-up phone line or does it need to
	   have a high speed network to work ?

	2. Is it possible to load a 6x10 font to be used with mg(micrognuemacs) or
	   me(microemacs) (I have a ME version 3.9 that has 40 lines display on monochrome
	   with font width of 8 pixels, and also a MG version 1a that can display 50 lines
	   if I run "hi50.tos" first but the width of the character is 8 pixels so it is 
	   kinda hard to read). Better yet can proprotional fonts be used instead of monospaced
	   fonts.  I realised that it is hard to used get a font with width of 6 to work with
	   TOS (since 640 divided in to 6 is 106. something) but is it impossible?

   Thanks in advance for any helpful information,
   Hai

PS: I guess that was more than 2 questions...
