Many people have mailed me saying that attempts to extract the code I posted fail at the uncompress stage with a corrupt input error. The resulting MouseAndMenuEmacs.tar file typically ends in lines like this: (defun dired-do-deletions () "In dired, delete the files flagged for deletion." (interactive) (let (delete-list asssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss the repeated "s" chars continue as nauseum. The cause is a mailer somewhere that stripped a few lines from the start of the 3rd part (or was it the end of the second part?). I reposted the 3rd part earlier in an attempt to get around the problem but it still remains. Fortunately I have now duplicated it here. What follows is a patch to be applied to the concatenation of the 2 original posts and the repost of the 3rd part: I have tried this here and it works. Sorry for all the hassle, if we had a "shar" here that could cope with shell scripts as input this fiasco would never have happened.... Patch file begins after this line. 1d0 < 1001a1001,1003 > M<V(A,;EE&O?/)*:E!(/%3Q"GH^:A;W#,"%J[BC6'FCFD_3?7#: YEZR%V"4? > M+YYL*=-+U,I4<$E;=6Q.'>+)_@K))@%E.6J.6JI!4(/%2;N!&$1"/<9:-:@D > MT/03CD,M3+.X_M;%G:(214R$O >4"RK0<'B]ZABG$)BQV\6:F!PXZ1/)#%.: Patch file ends before this line. Good luck.
