(I would be willing to bet the same change has been made to FSFmacs under Mandrake.) This is not the correct way to do it, however.[1] And who knows what other horrors lurk? I think we should just declare Mandrake "unsupported by XEmacs.org; please contact Mandrake with all questions regarding your Mandrake- built XEmacs." Footnotes: [1] They should explore installing an XtKeyProc. This can probably be added to XEmacs and configured using X resources, although it may need to be hard-coded. There may be other possibilities with GTK.
