Well, I found a way to make XEmacs reacting similar to DOS edit. I wrote
a small e-lisp add-on with the follwoing features:
- mark text with Shift-Cursor, Shift-PgUp/PgDown etc.
- cut / copy / paste with Shift-Insert, Ctrl-Insert, Shift-Del
- f11 is "find", f12 is "find again"
- "print screen" (? - I'm sitting at a Sun right now...) is Undo
- "pause" is stop (i.e. stops what XEmacs is doing, returns to normal mode)

This already helps a lot, IMHO. "Home", "End" etc.pp. should already be
working as in DOSedit.

Give me a shout if you'd like a copy. Maybe one day I finally get round to
make a rpm out of it... Maybe... ;-)

HTH,

Thomas
