I use MEmacs 3.10 and MicroSpell to prepare my TeX documents. Problem: Often I need to cut and paste columns of data. Since MEmacs does not do this (to my knowledge), I am forced to switch editors. Has anybody written a program to do this in MEmacs? If you have (or if the solution is trivial) would you let me know? On a related note, When I use MEmacs, I set the continous scrolling feature to on, but I constantly lose the bottom of the screen while scrolling. I have an ATI VGA Wonder video card and am running a 25MHz 386. Is there any one who notices this (problem)? If so, I would appreciate any solutions or advice. Thanks for your time. __________________________________________________________________________ `Decsribe Instructor's Weaknesses as a teacher: "Ability to avoid answering questions directly..." `Decsribe Instructor's Strengths as a teacher: "Ability to avoid answering questions directly..."
