We have a public domain emacs here at btr, and I'm not sure what the source is. I know that's not getting off to a good start, but here goes. It seems much like UniPress emacs, except for a few glitches. The main one is, I accidentally hit a search function, and it never let me out of it. I tried all kinds of combinations, and nothing worked, escape, ^C, ^X, etc. etc. The thing kept thinking I was looking for ^C, ^X, etc. and it just said "not found" and kept prompting for a search string. (UniPress I think lets you bail out with an escape.) In any case, is there a general thing I can do when I'm stuck in an apparent endless loop like that?
