I meant that I was unable to close emacs using its internal commands of
'C-x C-c' and had to kill it aggressively by either its PID or pkill.

Hyperlinks in gnus emails.

In org-mode if you put +foo+ then foo has been strike-throughed, and I
had lost this ability.

Bwwwwrrrp!!! (That's a raspberry for you! :)

It was an admonition for me that I *needed* to get this sorted this
weekend. And I have almost done.

- Inability to close properly - WORKS
- inability to use org-mode strike-through by using multiple +'s - WORKS
- Ability to right-click a hyperlink - not sorted. It seems to be a
  problem with avy-menu, so I've raised a bug on their site.

Thanks
Sharon.
