No idea. > BTW i can't find gpm.el in my cvs emacs here (about 4 months old..) Probably because it isn't there. It's somewhere on the web, presumably. I just did `locate' and it was in the XEmacs file tree. Of course, if it really turned out to be needed, one should check back with WP that this is ok as a contribution to Emacs proper (for which he has an assignment on file, but not for gpm.el specifically). -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
