MJ> MJ> Perhaps, there is a nice default .emacs file out there somewhere??? in the menu, Help -> Samples -> Sample .emacs I assume it has been kept current with XEmacs itself, but must admit I've never tried it myself the idea of sharing setup files is good, though - there are several people at Los Alamos who still use my setup stuff, even though I've been gone for a few years now to make it easier for them to get updates, I had the idea of putting my setup files on SourceForge (http://sourceforge.net/) - then they (or anyone) can simply check them out via CVS, subscribe to a mailing list to which I can send announcements if I make changes they might be interested in, etc. anyway, here's the page for my stuff in sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/jt-xemacs-setup/ but you'll notice that I haven't actually uploaded my files yet, so this is all just theoretical at this point... -- John A.
