I'm not a power-user though. I don't have any complicated elisp set up and I don't use any character sets other than plain ol' ASCII. I do use your feedmail+blat set up occasionally though. I can also testify that it's easy to build Emacs with DJGPP. I guess I should upgrade to 21.1. Bye, Rich =] -- Richard Dawe [ http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/ ]
