Can anyone tell me how can I revert to the old behavior of using find-file (surprisingly, the hotkey C-x C-f works correctly avoiding the windows file requester)? b) In 21.3, the buffers menu is now horribly stuck in the middle of other menus. Is there a way to revert it back to being the first menu on the left? c) Using: (set-face-foreground 'default "white") (set-face-background 'default "black") (set-cursor-color "red") in my .emacs file makes the cursor disappear, as if the set-cursor-color setting was not being taken into account.
