That would be wonderful. I'll see that the issues are addressed: > 1. posix character classes in regular expressions, thinks like [:alpha:] > These are nice because they work well with arbitrary languages. > Does XEmacs suppor these now? No, but I'll see to it that they are. > 2. The overlay API - I think XEmacs actually has a compatibility lib > for these, is that correct? Correct. > One of the things you could do it to figure out if I can also switch > to the API calls overlays-in and overlays-at in that library. You should, anyway: I'll take care of any problems. I take it something about these didn't work for you in the past: If that is so, a sentence or two on what those problems were would be much appreciated. > 3. outline.el.

I'm working on this right now - should be no big problem. A few minor incompatibilities with our current outline.el need to be addressed, but I'm working on them. > 4. Can you make XEmacs understand mouse-3 instead of button3 ? Or > maybe it does understand these by now? No; I'll try to get this in. Won't all happen overnight, but I'm getting to work on it. I very much appreciate your willingness to help! -- Cheers =8-} Mike Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
