These are not answers=20 to your questions, but are related, and are usefull features to know=20 about. First, Emacs with the tramp or ange-ftp packages, one can edit remote=20 files as if they were local. So you could use your favorite version of emacs all the time. Second, Emacs and XEmacs are separate entities. You might consider fixing all your problems with just one of them first. Then you can do something like: (if (featurep 'xemacs) (progn ;; do Xemacs stuff ) ;; do Emacs stuff ) in your .emacs file, because the same settings may not be possible=20 globally. You may even need to if/then/else the different versions of=20 emacs within your .emacs file. Just wanted to raise awareness of possibilities ...
