I am running os x 10.2.3, and lost the functionality of my delete key as well, it would bring up the help menu. Fixed that with a .emacs file. I'd like to be able to do two things 1) Fix the tab function 2) Make the instructions in the .emacs file global, so that all users would have it by just typing .emacs, but without putting a .emacs file into everyones home directory. Any and all help is very appreciated. Chris
