What a nice bunch of people...I am ashamed at pete for telling me i would get flamed. I am back with a few more questions. One thing almost everybody said was to type C-h i and I would have no problems. Unfortunately, C-h seems to be "delete-previous-character" or somesuch. I think this may be because I am using MICROemacs, not GNU emacs, on a Macintosh (and soon on an ultrix vax, but I think that will be GNU Emacs.) So, I ask: Are the differences large between the two? Is there GNU emacs for the Mac? Next question is: How does one "install" the packages previously posted (yesterday?) I am particularly interested in the edt package, since I do most of my work on a VMS vax. Which brings me to question 3: Is there GNU emacs for the VAX-VMS operating system? I hope the answers to these will be positive -- I am trying to build a unified editing environment for the three machines (VAX/VMS, Mac, and Unix.) Thanks again -- jeff P. S. I think the frequently asked questions message would be a great addition.
