And what do you do if you don't have either??

I _wish_ people wouldn't make unwarranted assumptions about what software
other people may have available when posting source.  I compiled mg
(no problem), found it _very_ nice (much faster startup than gemacs, which
is important to me), probably not a memory hog (important to everyone here,
as we are experiencing frequent crashes associated with running out of
memory), pretty much keystroke-compatible with gemacs, etc.

But reading the documentation with the TeX formatting embedded gives me a
headache.  There are a few things I'd like to know, and the info is probably
there somewhere, but...
