Hi Eli,

Thanks for your work.

The debian system i originally used is unavailable, and i'm using xubuntu
20.04 now, emacs 26.3.

Nevertheless, i would be happy to test if i can.

I guess this means that i have to get a copy of your modified version of
enriched.el, and instruct emacs to use that instead of
/usr/share/emacs/26.3/lisp/textmodes/enriched.elc.

So i need instructions on how to do all this in order to test.

Thanks again for your work!!
