I don't think I ever saw these. How exactly did they work?
Would you
just do (open-database nil 'mswindows 'registry "rw")?
Here's a short comment from Kirill's original posting:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The patch adds two database types: 'msini and 'msreg. The 'msreg type
has three subtypes, 'user, 'system and 'both. For 'user,
"filename"
is a path from registry root HKEY_CURRENT_USER, and for 'system from
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. For the type 'both, which is a default, the lookup
is first performed in the user tree, then in the system. Records are
created and delete only in the user tree, system one is considered
read-only (although opened read-write - a todo...).

I thought I was subscribed to XEmacs-nt, but I guess I got bounced
a
while ago and forgot to resubscribe (similar thing happened to xemacs-beta
when our telco went nuts for a while and our connection went boom).
A couple of days ago, I also reposted Kirill's patches, for review.
