I recently received this from some friends of mine who happen to be in the EMACS market, and I thought it warranted passing on to the net. Could someone send this to net.emacs for me, or at least tell me if there is an ARPAnet -- Usenet gateway with a Usenet address? I know that's a tough bill to fill. And by the way: what *does* EMACS really stand for? Extensible Macros and Command Structures? Is Richard M. Stallman listening?
