The bugs Jim listed actually appeared in an early release of SR10 -- they have been fixed, and so those who are installing Leonard Zubkoff's Apollo patches for Emacs under SR10 should *not* encounter them. I apologize for any confusion this may have caused. Incidentally, those patches are highly recommended; they provide Emacs with a very nice interface on the Apollos. They are based on 18.51, but upgrading from 18.51 to 18.52 should pose no problems except for some makefile differences which you can fix by hand. (I simply ran patch on the diff-18.51-18.52 file, starting with 18.51 modified with the Apollo patches. I am sending this message from the 18.52 version, in fact. Works beautifully.) Mike Hucka
