That saves a lot of time, so thanks to them. (Now if only they pre-
compiled all those .elc files for me.)    ;-)

The big improvement for 23.0 is internal UTF-8, right?

Well, I actually decided to upload my 22.3 (yes, with sources!) to
RapidShare for anyone to download (since too big to e-mail, not enough
homepage space). Note that this one is only truly preferable if you
can't build it yourself and/or just want it now now now.   :-)

P.S. Eli, next time you e-mail RMS, tell him "thanks" from me (and Jim
Hall) for not killing DOS support. Oh, and obviously, BIG thanks to
you too (and DJ, CWS, Andris, Juan, etc.) !!!    :-))
