Re: has XEmacs been ported to MacosX?
Vin:
I have supplied them, repeatedly. I don't think they are problems with XEmacs per
se. I'm guessing that they have to do with subtle differences between XEmacs and
emacs. The reason that I'm guessing is that no one has been able to find a
solution. I can't afford to waste time on something that may never be fixed so we
use emacs. Oh and by the way, I'm not talking about code that I wrote. These are
packages that come with XEmacs. You are better off with emacs today. I'd be
thrilled if XEmacs was usable so we would have options. We don't.

Please follow-up to xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org, if you care to.
