It's a matter of priorities. I have to work on functionality first. I worry about looks when I have the time. Right now that isn't on my priority list. Also, that's an old screen shot. I'm now using KDE as the desk top manager with FVWM as the window manager. I haven't had the time to tweak the two so they work better together, but for now they're doing what I need.

I have extensive modifications, most of which are in various files in ~/lisp. When I installed xemacs on this box, I first copied all my configuration files over from the other server. On installing xemacs, it stated that it wanted to make some changes regarding moving configuration files from ~/ to ~/.xemacs, which I agreed to. init.el reads: (add-to-list 'load-path "/home/glenlee") (if (string-match "XEmacs" emacs-version) ; compares "Xemacs" with results of emacs-version (setq custom-file ".xemacs.conf") ; if "true" custom file becomes .xemacs.conf (setq custom-file ".emacs.conf")) ; if "false" custom file becomes .emacs.conf - odd way of doing if - else. (load custom-file) which is word for word what .emacs used to read. It's doing a pretty good job of pulling most of my configuration options. But some seem to have mysteriously disappeared. Unfortunately there are so many things I'm currently trying to fix on this box that I haven't had time to try to do a step by step check of what's going wrong where with xemacs. > I usually set such things from .Xdefaults eg > > > Emacs*EmacsFrame.default.attributeBackgroundPixmap: > ~/aaa/bitmaps/backgroundtile.xpm > > Then do > > xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults to start the new settings then restart > Xemacs Sweet! That's what I was looking for! Is there a resource somewhere that gives an exhaustive list of the object model X uses? > Most of this is in the Xemacs FAQ Figures, Thanks, Glyn.
