>From what I've seen on the emacs groups, it's mostly people who are very conservative about changing what works, and those who dislike the `new fangled' look of emacs 21. I expect the latter group could largely be satisfied by a guide to turning off the various new features of emacs 21 that they dislike (perhaps the debian site file could even have an `emacs20ify' function); I think the one sticky point is that unless you use `emacs -nw', turning off the [left] fringe is not entirely equivalent to the old emacs overflow-indicator column. -Miles -- "Though they may have different meanings, the cries of 'Yeeeee-haw!' and 'Allahu akbar!' are, in spirit, not actually all that different."
