Well, if the TUTORIAL is outright broken or full of typos or grammar
mistakes or Norswedish ;-), newbies are likely to expect XEmacs to be
just as broken. That's bad. It's generally more efficient to get one
second opinion than to break your own head trying to proofread, that's
all I had in mind. But I'd certainly take a new translation without
it if the author insisted. Thanks to Björn, it will be proofread.
Everybody happy, yes?

XEmacs has attempted to get delete-key-deletes-forward correct for at
least three years. However, we haven't been totally successful. (At
least several current threads on comp.emacs suggest we've been a _lot_
more successful than GNU Emacs, though, :-)
I would say where you can use 21.4 as the reference. If that's too
inconvenient, add an author's note that this Swedish version of the
TUTORIAL was verified against 21.5 but 21.4 is expected to be
identical at the level of the TUTORIAL. Then all bases are covered.
